The exposure time is about the same or slightly slower than a normal camera. You can check the EXIF of those sample photos I posted above.
And no, you can't take normal photos w/ a converted camera, it's for IR only. The only way to take normal photos again is to convert it back.
Ahh I see, there were some conversions, where rather the hot mirror was completely replaced with a clear filter. Which made the sensor sensitive to all light, so you could stick an IR in front for IR at the same speeds as normal, or stick a blue newtonian style filter in front to put back the filteration that the camera had prior to the modification.
But I'm going to guess that the straight IR conversion with the IR at the sensor level (then why use the R72 filter?) is most effective.
And dammit you're giving me harder delimas (43/1.9.... or a true IR backup camera....)
