Kodak HIE and #87C

["Tolga Yayalar" <tyayalar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody,
I've been using #25 filter quiet while but recently I purchased kodak's 87C
filter. I've just developed my first roll, I was shocked with the results. I
had shot the roll on a sunny day with some clouds. In some shots I also used
#25 filter  just to be able to compare later. The ones that I shot with 87C
are almost completely black, I can see the image but they are so dense that
edges of the film is effected too. But the ones that I shot with #25 are
just as I expected. I used 400iso when #25 is atteched to the lens and 12
iso with the #87C. Kodak and most people suggest 10 iso with the 87C but my
camera has 12 minumum. I also developed in rodinal 1+50 12min@xxx This
combination gave me good results with #25 at 400 iso. I wonder where I did
wrong. Is it the film speed or developement? I know IR light is very
unpredictable but what is the filter factor of 87C? Any ideas and
suggestions would help a lot. Thanks
regards,
tolga
