I am finding I bring the D5000 , my only DSLR so far, when I can on weekends etc (even some work mornings) with just one lens.

I plan to upgrade at some point but have promised this to my wife.

However, I am also interested in some IR shooting, but dont want/ need a specialist converted IR camera, so plan on getting a D70 or D200 used at some point.

This camera could double as a walk around with one lens. With their age I should get one for a couple hundred at the most, in reasonable condition.

The D70 and D200 should work the best thus far, due to their filter array not having a strong IR filter.

Those two are the usual IR cameras, unconverted or converted. that seem popular and work (with a front lens filter like the HOya IR).

In my opinion two hundred dollars for such a camera, doubling as an IR camera and a walk around, is money well spent.
