[Leica] More pictures with / without IR cut filter and lens codes off and on

[tomschofield at comcast.net (Tom Schofield)]

Yeah, but look how much more shadow detail there is without the IR  
filter!!!!  I have been wondering whether the extended IR sensitivity  
would bring higher effective ISO and shadow detail in available  
light.  Your pics show it!

Why don't you try doing grey scale conversions of both indoor shots,  
and I'll bet you like it without the IR filter better.
