Not ment as a flame Gavin, but I have yet to hear from any camera
where this film window causes fogging. I know it was (is? Rui?)
mentioned in the IR-FAQ, but the one very likely responsible for it
(David Rosen) confirmed in email that he too only did so out of
precaution.

Better kill this rumour before it becomes an unneccessary 
rule....;-))
