Converting DSLR to Infra Red
Roy thanks for that information. I have decided to defintely go ahead but had not realised that there was an option which excluded colour IR. I will look into that but I have read an excellent article on colour IR by Clive Haynes so I am tempted to go that way unless ther eis some disadvantage. Dave

Sigma 15-30mm and ND filters...?
Thank you for your input, its most welcome.. Ive just been reading a fantastic article about exposure blending by David Clapp: link In it he explains that its hard to hold filters in front of such lens, do to the reflection it can cause.. But I may look into the Lee filter holder option you mentioned Rob, its worth a go... Lee

Sharper black and white photos
Has it been done before? PhaseOne were looking at doing a special batch of sensors for one of their backs a few years ago. They needed firm orders for a "quantity ?" before commiting to production. Not sure if it happended.

which DSLR?
Dont forget that with the D60 you are a bit limited for Auto Focus as it doesn't have the drive in the body, which means you can only use ( AF-S and AF-I ) lenses for that, as already said try holding a few different ones

dSLR Infra Red Conversion
I've always had focusing problems with the 10-20mm on my DIY converted d70, but the link i added to Petes article on IR show that others have had the same problem - The manual-focus @ 1m technique works for me with the d70 and the 10-20... http://www.ebb.ns.ca/general/tech/infra-red_d70.htm

Should I buy a sigma sd14?
Sounds like the SD14 is a bit like the DP1 - quirky but with the ability to deliver in the right circumstances.

Sigma SD14 v entry level Canon cameras?
I think brand new babies rarely look good photographed alone. Prefer to see a parent in shot. Strawman's advice is spot on re the camera and lenses.

Raw size from 5D?
Just because you pressed the shutter release doesn't mean that you created the photograph. I could set up a complex image and let my 4 yr old daughter press the shutter release - does this make her a good photographer? That makes her a good daughter. :o)

Which marque
Thanks Cambirder, that's a really generous offer. Sadly, the 5D is out of my range. Maybe when I get something in a while (I'm not going to rush into it and make a mistake) we could meet up and compare? Best wishes, David
