...for IR Conversion!!
I debated long and hard over whether to do this. Having heard some minor horror stories regarding being able to set White Balance with Nikon bodies I've been hesitant. But after reading this article on a D7100 IR conversion I traded emails with both the author and the folks at Kolari Vision and decided that I would take the leap. I figure the guy is in NJ, so I can always pay him a visit if he screws something up. LOL Seriously, though, they were very responsive to a bunch of questions and will be doing a 720nm conversion and calibrating it to the 18-105mm lens that I'll be using most of the time with it.
I'll keep you all posted. They claim one week turn-around, so hopefully I'll be shooting by next weekend.
It also means that you may see a D90 and a Nikon grip for the D7000 for sale soon. PM me if you're interested.
