How many peopel take infered photos over Gold Your argument is really silly when you think about it .
I tried this over a known Gold treasure site and Got an Aura first try So unless your going to try it yourself you could be a little more respectful to someone that has taken time from his day to try and inform you how to improve what your doing.
I wonder why, statistally, only a few people on the planet can do this? With all the people on earth taking multi-trillions of pictures every minute with every concevable type, age, style, format of camera, only a handfull of folks can ever (much less repeatedly) take these pics? The math must make this statistically inconceivable.

I'm not convinced, but, it's a pleasure to have a few of those folks right here on TreasureNet with us.

Thank you all for this great and interesting topic. I may have missed this so excuse me if I'm repeating but I assume this will only work on buried caches and not something hidden in a cave. Correct?

While I love any pioneer in my field of the hunt for heavy metals. Any piece of technology that could Id buried gold is expensive and owned by the govt. But if you have the aptitude dowsing or Lrl may be for you. Again some wont have the aptitude. As for a camera looking for buried gold it is not that far fetched. The Spanish and other cultures like the Mayan was very good at it. You can bet few use those old techniques today.

Digital camaras

You only need a filter fixed in front of the lens but the value of the filter depends on the camera. Traditionally Polaroid SX-70 cameras used a UV filter (c.300nm) for aura photography but digital cameras work over a much larger wavelength range. The camera, which took the picture I posted used a 720nm IR filter but other cameras have needed 850nm or 1000nm.

Mr Midas, I am hoping you can help me. 5 years ago I purchased a Condon rebel egos 350. I also bought 3 it lenses. I went to Mexico n took like 500 pics. I also tried it in my back yard and I v old not see a pic of an aura. Please help. Did I get the wrong camara? You can email me at [email protected]

This stinks of nigh-psychotic quackery, so why am I tempted to try it anyway?

This reply is regarding to the Digitalcameras CAN see bured gold....

My question is: Is it possible to view buried gold Auroras with a camera with night vision? Such as the Sony palm hand camcorder with night vision? Or is that a totally different concept?

Ohiochris,

I agree. Jeez for $500 on ebay you can get a new FLIR thermal infrared camera-now were talking results with detecting lode gold on the side of a hill or shallow enough in flat land. The trick there is to wait for fall when you get hot days and it cools off rapidly leaving the areas with heavy metallic concentrations to hold the heat!

Hi guys,
Does everybody buy product(s) (specially digital camera) from maxfynd site?
I'm looking for a digital camera for treasure hunting. I 'd like to know a digital camera can see or detect (for example) a gold coin in 8-10 meter underground really? Also, I visited a site (maxfynd.com) that introduced some special cameras such as the Fieldmaster , the Presidium, the Diving Cam & the Fieldmaster. But I don't know they are true. Could you please, lead me?

I have a FLIR E4 infrared camera (hacked to E6 capabilities). It cost about $1000. You say it can see gold. I will field test next time I have it out. I use it primarily for thermal detection of caves with good results.

This topic is fascinating and I am doing my own testing with my camera. All in all, from reading the posts on this, it is not a question of will or does it work, rather it boils down to the challenge of using the right light filter for the light conditions the moment one is taking a picture of a suspected target area. Has anyone here used a light meter in their experiments to better match the camera filter to the available light conditions?

I do not think so that Digital cameras CAN see buried gold all what you see is the temprtuer of the surface that's it

I don't know about the other fella, but here is why I think not.

1. There would be some impressive banner finds if it was possible.

2. Since 2009, the start of this, nobody has posted a credible find as a result of this technique.

3. If it worked, we would all be doing it.

4. There would be NO buried gold left.

5. Major gold mining companies would already be doing this.

6. There would be a reality show about it.

7. I'd be stinking rich.

Major gold companies have several ways to find gold. Satelites is one. They can tell by the plants on the surface. Now you are talking about a hand held camera thats unmodified will not see a arora. Gold has been known to spark at nite causing flashes. Lightening has been known to strike gold, so thats a possibility. Aztec could find gold just looking for a blue mist in a fog. A camera could see that. The light spectrum we can and cant see would not pick up a arora with a digital camera. You would need to one prove a arora exist. Then you would have to prove it. I tell what I seen that did work, was a pulsating light a guy set up. But it was seeing actual exposed gold.

Because I. Am in a country full of rediation which is not possible to allocate the treasure position and other thing , can you tel me what is the max depth , I am in this field since 20 years I have used several detectors and scan devices. I heard about this camera 5 years back and I was searching in jordan which is my country who is using that then I. Found one guy saying the same her we took him toes real palaces it's all non no positive feedback

Thanks
