Hi Megaera & welcome to Pixalo
I too looked into the IR route for the D70 a couple of years ago, but bottled it when I saw the changes that were required. Annoyingly it seemed easier on other cameras bodies
Lots of questions have been asked about IR on here, but must admit it usually ends up with PS filters, or filters for lenses.
Out of interest have you any shots you can post of your IR work with the filter ?
Thanks for your compliment re forums
