Larry:

I too shoot with the EOS 620 (have two of them in fact), and one of the
main reasons that I have stayed with these early EOS pro series bodies
is because of the infrared counter in the newer models.  According to
the people at my local suppy house (Pro-Photo Supply in Portland, OR),
as well as the fine folks at Canon.....they do not advise using infrared
film in any of the EOS models with an infrared counter.  But, since you
already have the other type of camera.....run a roll through it, and let
us know what happens.
