You will do quite well using the Fuji s602Z camera. Be prepaired for a longer exposure time than you are used to though. As a very broad guess, you could be looking at anywhere from about 3 to 6 seconds. This is when using say f8 to f11. Trial and error is the only way to start as cameras are different with IR. Don't forget to set your Custom White Ballance. You have 2 different allocations for White Ballance, so if you are keen enough. You could set one to some green patch of grass, and the other to sky blue. Then take each shot twice. One with either of the settings (check the final result). Don't forget to do the Custom White Ballance with the IR filter ON !!! and again expect a long exposure time. OK, once you have set the CWB, Without the filter on, compose your shot, pre focus (finger half press on shutter button) Once focused and keeping it there, with your other hand, screw on the IR filter and continue the shot. Hope this is of some help. Have fun and show us your results. Cheers. Once
