    Rollei Infrared Film

    Has anyone used the Rollei Infrared film? I'd kinda like to know more about it before I start spending $3 each for 4X5 sheets. I'll shoot some of it in 135 or 120 to test it out, but it'd be good to have a starting point.
    Black & white in silver gelatin emulsions.
    Linux users do it with The Gimp.
    Yes, I love my Argoflex.

    It's re-branded Maco IR 820c. Has an anti-halation backing (as opposed to HIE). Very nice stuff. Since the red sensitivity is so high, you'll most certainly want to shoot it with a near opaque filter. Anything less would be a waste of the film's abilities.

    For that matter, all of Rollei's films are re-branded Maco.
    The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist.
