After buying the Sony RX1R II, the GM1 was "resting". I thought I will get rid of the UV/IR cut filters (and replace them with a clear filter) to make it "full spectrum". I did that successfully.
The sensor may be from Panasonic or from Sony. It is in a ceramic package unlike the ones found in G1 or GX1 ( on a flex strip).
Some night time IR shots (with a 20/1.7 and 760nm IR filter):

Late evening reflected Ultraviolet capture (Pentax 25/2.8 Quartz lens + Baader U 2" filter):

Overall, useful but..as the UV shot shows, low shutter speeds activate an infrared pulse to check the shutter curtain speeds and bleeds through. I will try to get rid of this soon.
