Hi Meino,

Thanks. Several people has been kind enough to point out that the magenta 
cast is why M-8 needs IR filters. Alas I don't have one and can't get one on 
a short notice so I guess this Xmas' photos will be turned into B&W also. 
It's either that or I shoot Xmas dinner with my ancient Panasonic P&S or my 
iLeica. :)

Regards,
Spencer
