Subject: [Leica] IR modification of Canon D60

Saw a photo today in PC Photo of some tulips taken with an 'infrared 
modified' Canon D60. Anyone know who modifies these for IR? I assume they 
remove the 
low-pass filter so the infrared can reach the sensor. I've used my old 
D'Image 
7 for IR photos for some time because it lacks a low-pass filter but it's a 
bitch to focus that thing with a black filter over the lens using its 
primitive 
electronic viewfinder or the LCD. I currently shoot with my Leica R lenses 
and 
a Canon D Mark II  but I'd love to be able to modify my old D60 to take IR 
with Leica glass!
