HIE  can do that? Thanks.






I think the answer is, yes, it is real infrared and if you want to produce  
the results illustrated in the picture you sent, you will need to use a dark 
red  filter (it will look black) as suggested in their publication. Ilford 
makes 
one  which is not "real" infrared.  Kodak says:
 
If you want to record only infrared radiation, use a filter that  blocks all 
UV and visible radiation, such as KODAK WRATTEN Gelatin Filter  No. 87, 87C, 
or 89B
 
There are some offered on eBay that sell for around $20.  Be sure to  specify 
exactly which one you want.  Refer back to the Kodak publication to  help 
make your decision.
