Finally decided to have a go of infrared, and this is a perfect gateway film. Still very much learning, after running two rolls through a Pentax ME Super, with a fairly basic 50mm lens (looking to get a wider, sharper lens) and a 720nm filter.

Takes a little while to understand which surfaces are going to reflect IR, and that the camera metering is only a very rough guide. Came back to find more, only to see it was sold out. That I was disappointed tells you that I really did like this film. Going to try to Rollei 200 instead, so I've got a comparison.

Developed at home in a tank, so won't get professional results, but it's a really easy film to handle, going onto the reel with no issues, and it dries incredibly quickly. And even more, for scanning (just dSLR and light pad), once dry it doesn't seem to want to curly that much.

First time using IR film. Used a Hoya r72 on a Olympus OM101. Wasn't able to change the exposure time or account for IR focus adjustment, so what I got were slightly underexposed, low contrast images with somewhat of a tilt-shift effect at times. Despite these barriers I was still stunned by the eerieness of the images. I have experimented with digitally colourising these in post and they produce otherworldly day-for-night type shots.

I shot it without any filter and results still turned out to be amazing. So beautifully haunting and gothic. The contrast. Deep blackness. It's so ravishing.

i am yet to try using this with a proper filter however used without one it is a lovely high contrast b&w film. really love the look and can't wait to try it again with a filter.

With the right IR filter you can get some great shots. Clouds and springtime leaves look amazing.
