I've got a IR-converted Rebel XT coming my way, and I've been doing research on how to shoot IR and post-processing.

Anyone here shoot IR? I'd love to see some pics!

In my research I've discovered that the Sigma 10-20 (which I have) can produce hot spots. However, if I search "10-20 infrared" on flickr, I find some cool examples of shots with no hot spot, so I'm gonna give it a try. If I decide it's unbearable, I'll get a Tokina 11-16 or Canon 10-22.

A few examples of the 10-20 on flickr:

I have an old Canon G5 P&S that's converted for IR, bought it on ebay that way.

It's fun but I have focusing issues, and haven't spent much time investigating what's up. I know that IR focuses differently than visible light, and apparently I need to learn how to deal with that.

Anyhow here's a few of mine, nothing special, but a few good ones in there:

cool.
need to do some histogram level adjustment (or autolevels) on most of them.

i always wanted an infared capable camera and head-mounted display and a big infared light to ride my bike at night.
