All my previous attempts have been with a "72" designation filter on various digicams, also the Sony NightShot. Images were always not quite there - I had a sneaking suspicion that what I was getting was rather the remaining visible light getting through. The holy grail of course is to be able to get within reach of what can be done with good B&W IR films but with the added benefit of higher/variable ISO and instant gratification the digital camera provides. kris -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
