Canon and Infra Red ( IR) photography

anyone ever use a modified Canon for IR ?

My old S30 is decent for IR,but it's so used (going on 19,000 images...and has many hot pixels now. Also,need to use tripod,due to slower shutter speeds.

I read the modified camera's (Hot mirror removed,and IR filter put in it's place) Are really good,don't need a tripod (can shoot with faster shutter speeds,than with an attached IR filter in front of camera)

I see some modified Canon S60 G2 and G6 selling ,for reasonable price,on Ebay

anyone every try a modified canon ,for IR?

thanks
