Doesn't require extensive modification on most. If, at all. How do you explain the following image? It is not an IR mod camera. Just used a R72 filter and NO faux IR processing. The original Nikon Coolpix cameras are very popular still because you can easily remove the IR filter and have an IR camera on the cheap. (this image used a camera with the old Sony sensor)
