Here you go link
I guess you needed 58mm because of your Adorama link
The one on the German site is cheaper but don't know how much shipping is, no tax though since it's an EU country.

Just checked for you, it takes 2 to 3 business days and cost €6 shipment so in total €26,32 and that would be £22,63

I'd probably look to European shops too. Here in the UK B+W are rare and expensive beasts, on the mainland they're more commonplace and similar in price to Hoya.

Many thanks everyone - can't believe I couldn't find it on amazon UK!
I'll probably buy it from there for the sake of simplicity, though the other sites look tempting.

Me neither at first but the search term infracolor did wonders Many thanks everyone - can't believe I couldn't find it on amazon UK!
Good luck with the filter and post some photos because i'm interested in how they look.
I've a K10D and I've used it with a real infrared filter but the K10D isn't so infrared sensitive, but your filter might work better.

I've had my eye on the B+W 099 Filter for a while, which produces some nice false colour effects, example here.
But I can't find it anywhere in the UK. My best bet so far is from Adorama, though with shipping and taxes the cost is a little too high.
Does anyone know of UK shops that have a good B+W/filter range?
Thanks
