And it works!!! http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/belgiangator/IR/ The effect here is similar to what I used to get with Ilford SFX--not surprising, as the filter I used was the Heliopan 665, exactly the filter I used with SFX in my film days. Next I will try with a stronger filter; when I got rid of my film equipment back in 2004, I kept my IR filters, and now I am glad I did! It is a good way to get something interesting out of the boring sunshine and blue skies that will plague us during the next several months.
