Hi, after browsing through the IR section, i'm somehow hooked on the images that you guys have created. I have a canon 350D and a 1Dmk2. My Newbie questions are:

1. What do it mean by long exposure time required on the 350D? aprox how many seconds as a rough guide.

2. I had gone through the list of camera capable of doing IR but 1Dmk2 or any of the 1 series are not listed. Does it mean the 1 series cannot take IR?

3. Can the canon 350D be modified to take IR? I mean for IR only at fast speed.

Thanks in advance and I hope I can enbark on IR photography journey soon.
 

1. Usually it's like 1-3secs long on my D70s, f/8-f/11.
3. Yup, the 350D can also be modded if i'm not wrong.
 

yes the 1DII can do IR. in fact it does it great!!!
 

thanks for the reply.

Been trying out some sample shots but think I need more pratice. Followed the steps in the sticky but guess I need more training.

My initial test was using a 70-200f2.8 IS which I later realise is listed as Bad for IR. Seem the 350D + 10-22 that i have is a good combination.
