The R72 should be fine.

I disagree. At least with the use of the word 'fine'.

The R72 will allow SOME colouration, but I suspect the OP is after the typical false colour look that's fairly popular and you will get a MUCH better result with the 665nm filter, and even that isn't 'good' enough for those people wanting a more intense effect, which is why they also offer the 590nm as well.
