Digital Silver Imaging has partnered with Precision Camera of CT to provide the absolute best Digital IR conversions. Precision Camera offers the finest in camera repair and has factory trained technicians. They also have the most sophisticated camera and lens calibration equipment. Precision’s is also doing the conversions at a fraction of the cost compared to the competition. You shouldn’t have to spend too much to turn your under utilized camera into a creative tool.

Digital Silver Imaging has partnered with Precision because Infrared Photography has generally been a Black & White medium. When Precision launched the new service, we decided to partner with Precision to unite the their technical component of IR photography with our true B&W; printing services. It makes perfect sense to bring these two services together.

This shot of the old Paragon roller coaster is another favorite of ours and is from The Boston Globe Store. The shot is from the Boston Globe Archive from Boston, MA 7/19/78. The camera catches expressions of peoples faces as they ride the worlds longest and highest coaster at Paragon Park
