Glad to hear you're enjoying your new E-M5ii. Is it IR converted (IR filter removed from the sensor stack) are you trying to achieve the look with a cutoff filter and post-processing?

A few folks here have converted cameras and achieve good results so hopefully they will chime in. I see many posts on the difficulty of infinity focus with certain lenses.

The camera is not converted.  I'm using a Hoya R72 filter.  So far I haven't noticed a focusing problem; the lens is bright enough that, wide open, I can focus through the filter.
