LP1000
IR Longpass Filter

The LP1000 filter cuts on very gradually starting at 860nm, reaching its peak at 1600nm. As such, it has few applications when used with CCD/CMOS cameras, as it greatly attenuates the longer wavelength infrared light that most of these cameras will respond to. The single substrate LP1000 is more frequently used with infrared vidicon or InGaAs cameras, where it cuts off wavelengths below the 1550nm telecommunications band.

Examples of filter effectiveness.

Standard Threaded Mounts:
We offer standard filter sizes from stock – 22.5mm to 62mm – for same- or next-day shipping. Larger filters – 67mm to 105mm – are made to order and are normally not returnable.

Slip Mounts:
If your lens does not have threads for mounting a filter, Slip Mount adapters are available. Slip Mounts can attach a regular filter to a lens or attach a very large filter to accommodate a wide angle lens. Please call to order Slip Mount adapters.

C-Mounts:
3mm thick threaded mount for adding a filter between lens and camera
