I've been wanting an infrared filter for some time after seeing some of the awesome infrared pictures posted here.And after doing some research I have a few questions to ask.
I've been looking at the Hoya R72 (which it seems that most people on this site use) but i'm not too crazy about the price. For a smaller lens the price is alright but for the size of the lens I have (72mm) the price goes up to $150.
I read that the Kodak Wratten 89b is equivelent to the Hoya R72.Is this true? And does this filter work as well as the R72? Would it work with my camera?(Rebel Xt) Or would I be better off spending the extra money and getting the Hoya R72?
Thanks
