I still use IR cut filters periodically with all digital cameras and would do so if I had an M9; I'm yet to find a digital camera that is entirely immune to colour contamination from IR under certain circumstances. But I'm also picky and in some circumstances I like filters better than Photoshop. Marty On Tue, Jan 18, 2011 at 1:45 PM, Richard Man <richard at imagecraft.com> wrote: > I don't bother.
