Chris - Thanks for your reply. I came across David Burren's site during my endless Googling! He seems to offer a very similar service to LifePixel - but I must admit I wobbled a bit at the thought of the postage cost to Australia!! Mind you, there's probably not a lot of difference in sending to the US.
Maybe some entrepreneur could set up an IR conversion business in the UK??!!
Dave - I don't actually have a D70 yet!! I have been shooting IR with my D2H - I tried with the D2X, but it is toally useless at IR. Huge exposure times - with the ISO cranked way up AND loads of +EV!!!
I have decided to buy a 2nd hand D70 - purely for conversion. I believe now - unlike when you were looking - the D70 is one of the best/easiest conversions.
Regarding posting an IR image - I will find it very embarrassing - as I am a rank amateur bumbling along. But I suppose you will get a good idea of how NOT to shoot IR..........so I will read up on the forum help "how to post images"...........and listen for your laughter
