Well, it's not that infrared-counting EOS cameras *can't* shoot
infrared film outright. There is some fogging on the bottom of the
frame, but it would appear to vary somewhat from one individual
camera to another.
You could compose your images so that you could crop the bottom of
your images and see if that works for you. My camera (an Elan/100)
fogs a fair bit, and it annoys me enough that I'll probably buy one
of the first Rebel cameras (sprocket-counting) for IR-only stuff.
But really, I'd try a roll of IR film in your camera first and see
if bothers you enough before going out and buying another body. Note
that this only affects Kodak's HIE black and white IR film - the
Konica and Ilford films, which aren't as sensitive to IR, don't have
this problem.
