This is an old filter, and it seems a little different from the current COKIN CREATIVE &#8211; Infrared Filter 720 (89B). For a start my SFX filter is a gel, and I am not sure the 89B is. Also I have measured mine and I think that it has a filter factor of 8 stops. Where the 89B is listed as 6. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The filter is circular in a plastic holder so it is a little hard to use with wider angle lens, the filters can get into the shot. So in these cases I tend to use it without a holder. Just holding it over the lens myself. The other thing to be aware of is that you really can&#8217;t get it wet. That knackers it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see the sort of pictures it produces in my <a href=\"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/?page_id=554\">infrared gallery<\/a>.
