Not sure whether the Lifepixel 590 filter effect is possible with a Foveon based sensor without much post-processing but the Foveon technology enables a color infrared image much like the now defunct Kodak Ektachrome CIR film. Remove the hot mirror and shoot with a green filter (Hoya X1 or similar, green filters on the lighter side work best). Tree foliage should come out red/magenta.
