dacrazyrn has hit it on the head, this is nothing but an infrared filter, and it is being marketed to those interested in the "what if I could see thru clothes" question?
There is another old thread with discussion on this. Many light-weight fabrics, esp. synthetics, are nearly transparent to IR (even more when wet).
The sad fact is, because some people will abuse it, daylightIR capability has been greatly reduced in Sony cams that once were very capable.
All in all, a disgusting marketing ploy.
