Digital BW, The Print

Same here - the ones I tried gave a pretty lame IR image.  I have switched
to an IR sensitive consumer digital camera and IR filters  -- works fine and
is the only use I've found for one so far, except for snapshots.  Currently
I use the Olympus c4000 and the Hoya R72 filter.  Not as dramatic IR as
using the #87 filter, but only some of the older 2 "megapixel" Olympus
cameras could use that.

The current issue, August 2003, of Professional Photographer has an 
article by Don Emmerich on the digital production of IR images.  Its 
pretty thorough if you overlook the reference in fig. 5 to a "Rattan 
No. 87 filter".  I dropped them an email request the dimension of the 
weave and asking if I could use a cut out form an old chair seat; no 
reply yet:-).

Don't magazines have proof readers anymore?  Spell check is not any 
good if you don't understand the technology.
