Yes, we have tried but we purchased what we now think is the incorrect IR pass filter. Mainly because it was available, we purchased an 850nm but at this wavelength everything is pretty blurry. We have seen some great results at 642nm but that filter is from Astronomik, not so easy to source. The other one is a 742nm also from Astronomik. Unfortunately Mars will be gone until 2025 very soon. This gives us plenty of time to get organised with some new filters
