Yes. Either I'd have to have the camera adjusted for one specific lens, or I'd have to use live view focusing with the D810. Another option, of course, is to do what I'm doing now, and that's re-focus manually to the ir mark on the lens.

Yes, in the viewfinder would be slightly out of focus, but not on in live view with the LCD monitor.
I began using digital IR cameras around 2003 but the great break through in image quality for me came with a full frame Nikon D800 that I had converted to IR 720 nm. Yes, in IR you must use live view on the LCD to focus, but that is easy enough to do, though for sure the mirrorless cameras do offer a much greater sense of freedom in using either viewfinder or LCD monitor.

They look good Jon.
Interesting buildings, Jon.
I love the look of the back lighted live oaks. The old buildings in Charleston are awesome, but in the low country I am also drawn by the forms and shape of the old live oaks, especially in IR with back lighting.
Back lighted palmettos are also fascinating!!

Thanks everyone!
This navy yard was closed down a number of years ago, and turned over to the state. They set up a "Redevelopment Authority" to conserve it. Some of the buildings are now B&B's. Some are museums. The "Commandants Quarters" just went through what I think was a more than year long restoration. It is supposed to be a museum of what it would have looked like in the early 1900's. I have seen items in the local news about the changes, but today is the first time I have been there. I think I will return. Not only for what is there, but the industrial yards near by. A lot to photograph!
I had my old Nikon D2x converted from 720nm to 830nm by lifepixel. Just got it back today. Here are a few shots made just around the house. Did not realize that they totally reset the camera to JPEG fine images until I got back in. Oh well, I normally shoot RAW. I need to get used to the filter, and how to process the images. I just added a bit of 'clarity' and 'dehaze'. They are starting to look a bit dark to me....

Replaced the 950nm filter with a more traditional 830nm filter. Back in business!
