No, it can't - but neither can any other Sony camcorder.
Unfortunately, this silly rumor prompted Sony to disable
a valuable feature (daylight infrared capability). With
rare conditions, some "see-through" was possible, but
only with shear or open-weave cloth in single layers
(not likely to be encountered often enough to satisfy
the interests of those interested in this capability...).
Meanwhile, those of us who like to shoot daylight IR
landscapes (red filter works well, with B&W mode used)
have lost the capability in new Sony camcorders. DARN!
