Hi Randy,
I am going to sit in my armchair in front of the computer and watch to see who does something significant. The obvious answer is to get out that old digital camera and disassemble it, then remove the IR filter and replace it with a piece of 35mm exposed film. Then go out and see what you find in the treasure fields.

However, my free time is limited. I have visions of dismantling a digital camera and hearing a "pop" noise when I accidentally short the flash tube capacitor against the cpu in the camera (I already did this on my last attempt). So I sit in my armchair, ever so patiently waiting for some dedicated hobbyist to post their progress on modifying a digital camera and finding interesting IR images in the treasure fields.

P.S. Kudos to Esteban... Marathon designer and builder of experimental electronic treasure machines.

Best wishes,
J_P
