Thanks Don, I normally wander about with two bodies, and one or two extra lenses depending upon what I'm expecting to see and shoot, but converting one to IR is a great idea. For the time being I've decided to stick with D3, D300 and D2x. The D2H and D200 are going. I'm also going to thin out the glass a bit so watch this space for some bargains in the near future. I think the D2X would be great as an IR Body and I saw the post about IR conversion. I will be off the forum for quite some time shortly as Lindsay and I are moving to North Wales - to a bungalow which will make things easier for her and for me. Take care everyone and I look forward to getting back among you all as soon as possible.
