Yeah, I don't need IR, as it will be focused at a distance, not anywhere within, say, 10 meters. And I'll probably have it right up against the glass, to prevent any glare. Any night-time views will probably get the street lights in the town, but nothing of interest. I want to get the Blue Mountain scenery, because the mountain really displays the weather - rain, snow, and the seasons changing, from winter to spring to fall.
