[QUOTE="Englischdude, post: 322716, member: 16372"] hi there, first off welcome to the forum. Jake has already given a very thorough and professional rundown on the pros and cons of each method. What I would like to add is the post processing required. This is not to be underestimated and if you want to get serious about IR photography you have to prepare yourself for the post processing required to even get half way decent results. This does not cost money, as there are a number of programs available, even open source for all platforms which will provide the tools you need, but you will have to learn how and be prepared for post processing. My suggestion would be, get a 720 filter and a tripod and try it out. If you like it you can always invest in a converted camera later on. I bought an old D70 and had that converted, fulfils my needs perfectly. Good luck, and if you have any further questions dont hesitate to ask. [/QUOTE]
