Keith,
I set my (built in TTL) camera meter at 25 ISO. I determine the exposure in
manual mode. At sunny weather this is mostly around 1/30 at F8.  So I set it
manually. Then I screw the B+W092 filter on the lens and shoot. You will
understand, that I have to use a tripod. By screwing the filter on the lens,
of course I do not change the exposure (that's why I set it manually). You
cannot look through a 092 filter, so this is the only way to do it. I
develop in XTOL  1+1 at 68 degrees for 12 minutes and get excellent
negatives. The automatic focussing of my camera (Nikon 8008S) also works
through the filter and at the same time corrects for infrared. This is
something most people do not realize. Just try it out with your camera.
Success and let me know your experiences!
