Hmm, that would make sense. It sounds a lot like what my camera is picking up, so I guess I don't really need to worry about IR with this laser. I do uderstand laser safety (don't stare at the dot too long,don't shine it in you eyes, ect.) and I'm always VERY careful when using my laser.  ...

Which dot? the dot with the green filtered out via floppy disc, or the dot from the original picture?

No,that's just shining it on a wall across the room. I have also taken pictures of the IR with the green filtered out be two layers of floppy discs(I heard that can be used to check for IR) if you would like me to post those, let me know.

Okay, after a few tries, for some reason the beam shows-up on screen, but not in the picture itself. So I used a second camera to get this picture, so bear with me on the quality:

Sure, I'll see if I can get a decent picture of it. Quick question, how do I post pictures/video once I get one?

For me it usually takes 7-15 days from the time I place the order, and I'm in southern US

I've got this same laser, and I was wondering about the IR myself. So last night I took my digital camera and used it to look for IR, and I noticed that within about the first second or two of turning the laser on, ther is an actual BEAM of IR shining slightly to the side of the green laser. :o...

I bought a DX laser, and while looking through the message board there I came across a link to this site.  ;D

Texas, USA New to lasers and just signed up with the forum. :)

Just signed up with this forum after getting my first decent laser (well, non-cat-toy laser) about a month ago. ;D
