Hello boys and girls

Still new here and hope this is the right place for this thread.

Bascially im looking to get either my sony A55 converted into a full spectrum camera ( remove IR blocking filter / hot mirror ) or pay for my dads Nex 5 to be converted as I have seen a few people with that done but have since lost the pages.

Im just wondering if anyone knows of any companies that do these modifications for sony A55 or Nex 5 or possibly getting another camera similar to nex such as interchangeable lens cam already converted.

Thanks
 
IR is pretty standard. UV is a totally different ballpark - to start with a lot of lenses will absorb significant amounts of UV.
 
Im not so bothered about the UV really its just something that is possible with the conversion

Mainly IR and IR/colour im looking for and of course normal colour

andone know where to get a good correcting fliter to then remove the IR and possibly UV when I want to do some normal shots? and how much it would cost?

Also if anyone knows if it would be better to convert my A55 slt or get my dads NEX 5 converted and borrow that as he said tis ok and he doesnt use it very often?
 
B+W do the 486M hot mirror replacement filter.
Warehouse Express have them in a range of different sizes.
I'm not sure offhand if Hoya/Cokin/Tiffen/etc. do one, or what they call it if they do.
