Thanks for all the replies, might get one soon so excited. :) anyway, for infrared, does it have those mirrors or whatever it is that block infrared on the mki?
A sensor will absorb whatever light reaches it. Canon employs a thin filter screen on top of the sensor to prevent the infrared light from reaching the sensor. This is done on all standard (non IR) digital cameras, including the 5DC. If you want to capture near-infrared images, companies like Life Pixel will remove the infrared filter and replace it with one that enhances the infrared part of the spectrum that your camera captures. IR photography creates some interesting images, but conversion is pretty much a permanent process.
