That's your first mistake, especially if you want to shoot Kodak IR.
It is horribly grainy.  Exploit it!  To me, the graininess enhances
the dreaminess of the images.

Konica's film is much less grainy.  If you prefer a more grain-free
image it may be a better bet for you.

Try to use the grain to enhance the effect and see what you think.
