[Nathan Wajsman]

From the description this is very similar to my Heliopan 715. Will try it on my Fuji X.

Cheers,

I have been trying Fuji IR with a monopod, but it is f/2.8 and 1/15" in bright sunlight at best, so sharpness and DOF are compromised.  This is with a 720nm IR filter.  One thing I have noticed is that a pano tripod head (where you correct parallax) is really not needed for landscape images.
