Which lens for IR photography?

ray1965 · 3rd August 2007

I am about to try IR photography: don't know which lens to use.
Pls help me buy the correct size R72

My equipment:
Canon 350D
EF 50mm f/1.8 (52mm filter size)
EFS 60mm f/2.8 (52mm filter size)
EFS 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 (77mm filter size)
Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II (62mm filter size)

Hope someone can help a newbie out.

Thanks

cheers

just buy the 62mm R72 and use it on your 18-200mm, unless you willing to spend $$$ on a 77mm R72 filter.
