Thanks for a very useful video. I shoot digital black & white infrared and now want to try film infrared. Your video informed me that 4x5 infrared sheet film was available and was cost-effective when compared to 35mm and medium format roll-film. Also, I had planned on using Dektol film developer but from your video, I learned that Dektol does not work well with the thin 4x5 inch infrared sheet film.
Hey, I just mean that I didn't try to meter through the filter. I know that EI 25 with a 715 nm filter works, so I just set my meter to 25 and used it as I normally would.
@@Shaka1277sounds like you're keeping the film in camera at ISO 400, metering at EI 25 then setting the aperture/shutter to the light meter reading. Am I understanding that correctly?
Thank you for sharing!
Might go with Xtol in the future, used HC110 in the past and thought the speed was faster than I expected, makes sense now. Great piece by the way.
Great video, well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Definitely try rodinol 1:50. Try shooting this film with no IR filter and an extra 1 to 2 mins development, Gives a nice contrast.

I'm delighted to hear it was helpful in some way!
This was great. I wonder if these results are somewhat applicable to Rollei 400s (I think it’s very similar, or even the same film).
Hi, what did you mean about EI 25 with the IR filter and metered as normal? Thanks.

You are!
Hi, thanks for the video. Did you settle on a good development time for Rollei Infrared using Xtol (replenished method in Patterson tanks)?
I did! 10:00 at 20 °C has worked really well so far. Density is good but the contrast isn't excessive.
Also check out youtube channel the negative for an explanation on when to use rodinol 1:50 or 1:25.
