If things go according to plan, I'll be sending my 720nm X-E2 off to Kolari this week to get made into a 590nm camera. And as I go through the options, I see that there are three levels of filter offered: an "industry standard uncoated filter" IR conversion, an IR conversion that is said to have less flare and other optical trouble, an "anti-reflective coated filter" that's $100 more, and a "pro anti-reflective anti-smudge filter," that's $150 more. Now, I can see the advantage of an anti-reflective filter; indeed, I wonder why anyone would offer anything else. And in that my 720nm filter has been not just a dirt magnet but a dirt magnet that seems coated with glue, I can see the advantage of one that's easily cleaned. But before spending an extra $150 on this stuff I thought I'd ask if anyone has had any of the higher-end filters installed and if so, what their experience has been. Bonus points if you've used both the standard and anti-reflective filters and can speak as to whether there's any noticeable difference.
Thanks!
