Jim,

The hot spots are a pain but can be dealt with in Photoshop, as George 
said.  I think the Fuji X is OK for infrared, but my conclusion is that 
a tripod is needed.  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.
