Re: Perils of Infrared Photography

Vorchek, I don't think anyone's really spelled it out to you in this thread, but you can't get satisfactory IR false colour using the R72 filter (that's 720nm, right on the edge of the visible spectrum): you have to have 650 or better still 590nm cutoff, for which you also need a full spectrum converted camera.

The attached pic is with the 590nm cutoff.
