Finally, a use for your old save icons that isn’t a coaster.

In a YouTube video, French photographer Mathieu Stern explains how he used an old floppy disk as an infrared filter for his Sony a7 II mirrorless camera (seen via PetaPixel).

“To be honest, I was not sure this hack will work, so when I saw the first image on my camera screen I was very impressed.”
