Hi Bobbi,
I prefer the results I get with Konica IR and a #21 orange filter. I would
do a test roll shooting the same subject with the #25 red and then orange,
bracketing of course. The best test would be to buy or borrow a #29 deep red
as well and do four brackets, #29 red, #25 red, #21 orange, and no filter.
There goes a roll of film, but I think its worth it.

Good luck,
Bill
