[Leica] For Ken Carney - "How Converting My DSLR to Infrared Made Me Fall In Love with Trees"

[Ken Carney]

I have read that the M8 has weak IR filtration and is thus a candidate 
for IR.  I believe Nathan has posted some IR images with the M8.  With 
the Fuji I am using a 720nm IR filter and need ISO 2000-3200 for hand 
holding, with the lens wide open.  I have one lens that has a hot spot 
stopped down, but it is pretty easy to fix in Photoshop.
