S007 vs S006 with IR contamination

My S006 displays from time to time the IR issue with blacks. Not often, but it did it again yesterday with a black down parka, and does most frequently with fresh asphalt paving.  Nothing that can't be fixed in PS of course, but I'm curious, do any of you with S007's see the same issue, or has Leica cured it with the S007? And if not maybe, just maybe, they can deal with this for good in the next iteration, if and when it comes.

 

Thanks,

Well, I have not done extensive testing with my S2 looking for IR contamination, but it must be much less than on a M8! Still, to be proactive on this issue, I do use an 82mm UV/IR Cut filter on my lenses, as I would be using a UV anyway. I am interested to hear input about this from other users.
