Re: Konica IR

[eml@xxxxxxxxx]

That's no problem at all!  Don't use any filyer, and shoot at between
EI 25 and 40 (depending on your processing and meter).  In fact,
to totally get RID of the slightly lightened foliage, a light yellow-green
(#11?) filter would probably be best.  Increasing IR effects would result
from using, respectively, the equivalent of Wratten #'s 6,8,15,21,23,25,and
29 filters.  You'll have to do some exposure tests, but this will, with
proper exposure, result in progressively greater IR effects, from none
to all the film can manage.  Adding a (linear) polarizer will help to
darken the sky at the horizon a bit more, but with Konica's slowness,
the approximately two stop speed loss is a bit hard to handle.

Hope this helps,
