Do any of you use your M9 for infrared shooting? I know it has an IR cut filter in it but I have heard it is weak (though not as weak as the M8). I'd love to see some of your images if you have them.

Don't bother - that is the one area where the M8(.2) out performs the M9....

yes I have used IR on the M9; just put on the R72 (infrared) filter, set the mode to B+W, and you may have to do some exposure compensation. Works best in bright sunlight as the filter is almost opaque.

Irwin Puts has published results that demonstrate the M9's IR sensitivity. His information may help you decide.
