More than you think!
This might explain the fuzz about a new E6 compatible Ektachrome 
IR several months ago....8-))
So the main question right now is whether this new chemistry is more 
for the homebrewing developers among us....
Btw, this new emulsion/chemistry does not only apply to 70mm, but 
also to 35mm, right?
Can't remember having noticed any 70mm film on the Kodak site....I 
even sent them email to explore the combo of 70mm and IR further, 
never got an answer.
