Could you say something to the metering?
I have found that the blue sky (dark in IR) is significant noisier in the first image ISO200 than in the third ISO100. The noise level in the first seems more than expected by the ISO difference. Was the the first image underexposed? Did you lift in post? I guess your finder was dark. Do you autofocus w/o filter and than setup the filter?
Thanks rf-design for the comments and questions, I will answer as best I can since these were taken 2014 and on different days. I normally shoot the SD1 Merrill at ISO 200, but when shooting IR I found that ISO 100 works better. the first image may have been under exposed a little.
I manual focus without the filter, set the exposure and put the filter on to shoot. This seems to work the best for IR. I on occasion will use a incidence light meter to get my exposure.
