So let me ask the question joe, because I honestly don't know. Does one have to change out the processor, or disable something to get IR? Or is it a mode that you can set, then get out of when you want to shoot regular color photographs>

Thanks for the info ...... I've seen some photos where the trees leaves look like big billowing white clouds. It's mildly interesting to me, but not enough so that I would disable one of my camera bodies to achieve.

Have you looked at any of the plug ins from lifepixel.com? They have some free presets that work in several pp applications.
And using the screw on filters require really long exposures where any movement of the subject is horrible. The converted camera doesn't need the long exposure and captures the image like a regular camera.
Do you do a preset color balance prior to shooting?
Did you have your lens calibrated for the ir?
It takes time but keep trying you'l get it!

In was easier with film, buy IR film and green filters and shoot away. No conversion.
