Subject: [Leica] IR film and the M6?
From: ZaaX@aol.com

Can one use IR film in the M6?  Can I assume that the shutter will not absorb 
IR and retransmit it to the unexposed film?
It would seem that the M is a near perfect camera for IR. Since it is a RF 
you don't have to look through the lens and through a #25 red filter giving 
you a nice bright view for composition.
How long you can store IR film in a freezer?
Last of all who makes changing bags that are lined with rubber to prevent 
absorbing IR when loading the camera?

Thanks
