Hello all, I've got a query about using that Kodak b&w IR film in a TC-X (with the window in the back taped over). Will it work okay? Or is the plastic too...
Except for, as you mentioned, the film window in the back door, there is nothing less light tight about the TC-X despite the fact that it feels flimsy. If you...
All, Keep in mind that at least SOME (if not ALL) "duct tape" is TRASPARENT to Infrared. I found this out the hard way a long time ago, thinking that it was...
Thanks for the replies guys. I'll definitely give the opaque other stuff (plastic probably) secured with tape idea. As regards Konica IR film- I've only used...
ASA is still, I assume at least for the most part, read by those spring loaded metal pins that "read" the combination of "metallicized" squares on the side of...
All, Be sure to "bracket" your shots, especially with the first roll or two. The world often looks Quite Different in IR vs. Visible light. IR can be pretty...
Tom, have you ever used the Konica IR film? I just wondered at what ISO it should be exposed. It doesn't really say. Philip _____ From: Tom Mullikin...
Philip, I don't think I'm going to be of much useful guidance, but here's a couple of thoughts anyway, FWIW: First, I used Kodak IR films and it was a LONG...
Philip, There are a couple guys in the Kiron lens group that shoot IR. I think/guess that one said Konica IR at ASA 12? with a 25? or 29? red filter? I'm NOT...
Hi Philip, I got a reply for you on IR film. I hope this helps. Steve O Here's what he had to say; Rate the Konica version @ 50. And the Kodak version @ 400....
Thanks Steve and Tom that helps greatly - you're right of course, some research would have given me what I needed but I figured if someone here had any...
... Considering IR film detects the heat given off by objects, including the camera it is stored in, asbestos would be a good choice.;0) Seriously, ideally,...
... Essentially you are correct. The Ilford and Konica films are regualr films with extended ranges into the low end of IR up to 750nm, I believe. The Kodak...
I recall hearing something that the Canon EOS cameras used an IR beam to count the sprocket holes for frame counting which could fog IR film. I do not have a...
Hi Philip and others, I received another bit of IR info for you. Here's the main part of his post: Hi Steve, I've just been shooting Konica Infrared 750 film...
I'm not trying to confuse things but here's my $0.02 worth on Kodak B&W IR film: Read the Kodak technical information - they recommend different ISO's...
Hi Francis, The EOS-3 does, so cannot be used with IR film. I think the Elan 7/7E/7N and Rebel series are all okay with IR film. I'm not sure about the EOS 1V....
Hi group, so I received the Spotmatic today I mentioned I bid on in an earlier post. I have been rather sceptical about the Spotmatics; firstly because my...
Having many T2's, T3's and Spotmatics and using them all, each has its good and less desirable attributes. The Konica shutter may be noisy but it is...

I'll second the support for the Copal metal shutter. They are much tougher, maintain their accuracy longer and in many cases, due to tight engineering and the...
The last roll of Konica IR I shot a month ago showed pretty good results with bracketing between 25 & 50 with my old TC, shot through a Jessops R2 red filter....
I've posted a couple of pictures in a folder labelled "Konica IR Film" in the photos section. Once everyone who wants to see them has had a gander I'll delete...
... It was and still is. From what I found out when I shot a roll years ago it is not based on heat as the B&W is. EK explained it as a false color film. My...
According to the Kodak description of the color IR slide film if developed by process AR-5 (anyone heard of this?) it is an IR film, whereas if E-6 is used it...
Very nice Dan. This is the kind of thing I'm looking for from the Konica IR stuff I have. You mention that you use 6-60, how may I ask are you ascertaining...
But it's OK, it was my Nikon Digital camera, Not my Konica FC-1 or nT-3, so it didn't bother me! BTW- the digital has some scratches, but seems OK..hehe ...
Hello Jeremy I'm going the other way than you- from Pentax Takumars to Konica Hexanons, and doing a m42 versus Hexanon shoot out at the moment. Í think though...
