What filter are you using? Are you adjusting the Red and Blue channels in post processing?

corkin 89b i think it is ........

and yes try-ed that but what i get out the camera seams wrong compared to what other sites say

i could just be missing something .....

OK this isn't a well composed crisp photo but shows what i mean IE all red lol

Doesn't look like an infrared filter to me. Read this thread (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=221138&highlight=infrared) and my reply (#3).

What happens if you set the camera to record in B&W instead of colour?

[hobbes2112]

Most IR filters still let a little red through, so they will have a red cast to them.

I just shoot or PP them to BW.

As CannedHeat said those don't look "classically" IR to me, the foliage is way too dark. That could be due to PP though (if you did any)
