Not happy with the 18-55 for IR...nasty hotspot. The 55-200 is ok, but sadly not wide enough. Will need to evaluate the 14mm when I return home.
Jonathan, It's interesting that you said the hotspot wasnt too bad using the external filter. Clearly putting the filter inside is exacerbating this effect.
See here for some shots from using the XPro1 and 18-55 with R72 filter.

Be interested to see one of your images.
If you want to Dropbox a RAF then I can compare.
Have to say its quite horrendous!
I have been having to very carefully frame shots with a view to ease of removing the hotspots later!!
I will see if I can do a comparison shot later today when sun comes out... with both lenses at 55mm and upload to my Dropbox.
I haven't got the raw converter with me ...so if you would like to grab these images, process and post them here to demonstrate the extent of the issue, that would be ok with me.
Will send you the Dropbox link when it's done.
