Can't answer your monitor problems, but I just tested SFX with a figure
model under flash lighting.  I rated the film by the book: EI200 (measured
through a #25 red filter), D76 1:1 for 14.5 min. at 68=BA .   I would say=

the pictures came technically perfect.  Skin tone was marvelous.  Not as
strong an effect as Kodak's HIE, but still a definite infrared effect.   I
