Re: Please explain how infrared LED flash camera w
most digicams have extended range into the red spectrum, some dSLRs have an IR filter ahead of the sensor. depends. not sure what product you are talkign about, but a quick search showed IR flashes on cameras to take remote b/w low resolution photos in the field. since IR is theoretically not visible to game, they won't be scared away, meaning more photos (or video) for you. and since the result is in b/w not color, it doesn't matter what color the flash it, just how much light is reflected off the subject--the camera will convert that to a visible image.
IR film (such as Kodak HIE, about the only stuff left) captured reflected IR, not emitted IR. so you can't go take photos of houses and see heat leakage and such. you CAN take pics of a forest, or landscape, and get a nice image (different reflectivity of biotic material).
also, most of the accessory (large) external camera mounted flashes uses IR to focus in low light, by putting out a grid pattern in the near red (sometimes visible). others have a visible reddish/orange assist light, others use white light (strobed flash or seperate LED/hotwire emitter) for assist.
