Hi Waya ... The sensor can handle IR, but the optics need to be able to focus the IR and remove the visual components. 35 mm IR photography requires fancy...
Ahh...because that is different. Even with a 35mm SLR, you have to buy the right kind of film that reacts to IR. With a digital camera, the CCD (the electronic...
