DIMi is running an infrared photography competition sponsored by
MaxMax.com with monthly IR filter prizes and a grand
prize of a digital camera conversion to IR mode, worth US$450.
Erm, presumably you need an IR camera in order to take part in the
competition, and so the grand prize would, kind of by definition, be
worthless to its winner?
Not necessarily so. Many digital cameras can take IR pictures using the
relevant filters.

That is not IR Photography. There is a big difference between using a
filter and using the film.

Uh, what? If you mean simulating IR in software "filters," that's one
thing. Otherwise, actual IR photons don't care what kind of sensor they
hit, whether it's an electronic array or film.
