[QUOTE="Fred Kingston, post: 763347, member: 10742"] I don't have a D7000 series camera so can't answer that specifically but I don't think it does. The biggest reason folks go with the camera conversion is because of the focus issues... Older lenses used to have focus scales on the lens' barrel to adjust for the focus variance in IR's focusing distances. Camera converters, in addition to replacing the sensor's filter, typically adjust the camera for a specific lens... In some cases, you even send in the lens with the camera. I wouldn't worry too much about the WB settings. It's only useful for pixel peeping in the field on the small jpg image in the camera. As soon as you do any post-processing, the WB gets thrown out as soon as you convert to B&W. Post-processing is where all the action happens in IR, IMO... [/QUOTE]
