This camera may have been a better buy than I first thought.
It was sold as faulty, autofocus not working but I found the lens detente button stuck down so that any lens would not lock in place correctly. Now fixed and I might pick up or borrow a cheap lens to see if it is all going. T-Ring arrived so that is now 2" converted and I checked out Gary Honis's IR conversion website to see what is involved. Quite a bit more to remove than the KM 7D and the filter is in the middle of the stack but we'll get to it later. He also shows a Peltier box setup I am also now looking at. Gets down to about 0* from ambient 24*.

Ah, it's all good fun ..

And BYE is awesome !! Very clever piece of SW.
