Grain pops up again. If our photo store ever gets the Ilford in I will try
it also. Especially if it's grainier than Konica. When I went in and
asked for Ilford's new IR film, the man almost slapped my hand and said,
"It's not an IR film!" Picky, Picky, Picky. He knew what I meant. So, it
only peaks at 740 nm., it's not your basic panchomatic film from what I
understand. But, I will try it for the grain.
