Hi Dude,

Near IR video cameras have been deliberately  designed to block the use of IR bandpass filters to get Xray effects in daylight. This thwarts the perverts and also stops daylight spirit photography. If you could get a digital SLR camera that allows daylight IR photos and will do video clips, it would be better for checking out historic sites at forts and battle fields.

Believe it or not, single element plastic lenses focus better than glass zoom lenses with IR. Manual focus eliminates some auto focus problems with IR photos.
