Experience

Spencer's Camera & Photo is not only the leading IR Conversion service provider; we are also a camera repair facility. Since 2001 we have been trained in the latest techniques by most major camera manufacturers giving us the experience and knowledge to perform IR Conversions, Astro-Conversions, and camera repairs safely and accurately. We currently provide conversion and modification services for over 600 camera models. Our specific training and skills allow us to calibrate your camera for perfect focus and performance. We guarantee your camera will be serviced safely in a clean and antistatic environment, insuring proper and accurate performance after the Conversion or Repair service. Only the highest image quality polished glass and quartz material is used in our conversions unlike some of our competitors that use plastic filters. Plastic filters will result in distortion and soft focus in the final images. In fact, many of our customers have sent us cameras for repair that have been damaged by other IR Conversion providers leaving them with a non functioning camera. By sending your camera to Spencer's you can be confident you will receive a reliable, fully functioning camera.

Choice

Spencer's Camera & Photo provides IR Conversion services for more camera models than any other provider. We can convert almost every digital camera on the market. We have many filter options to choose from, including the popular Black & White, three color IR filters (720nm, 665nm and 590nm) and Full Spectrum/Clear filters. Also, there is always the option to custom order any nanometer range filter to your liking.

Cameras

Not only do we provide more choices and the highest quality converison services we also provide new IR cameras and Astro-cameras converted to your specifications. If unsure which camera to convert or which filter to choose please contact us for a little advice and direction. Our experienced staff can help with your camera and/or filter choice.
