For my Nikon system I purchased a very cheap D1H for IR work only. I have also used the Tiffen 52mm Hot Mirror filter for a couple of years to eliminate IR from corrupting photos I was trying to make using UV light only with the B+W 403 filter. However for UV I had to use enlarging lenses which have extended response in the UV range. The D2X has good UV sensitivity and the D200 has just about zero sensitivity. Len .
