RE: critique on infra article and more questions

["Laurie Ann Smith" <zeldaz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If this is an intro class I wouldn't confuse them with the addition of IR
film. In my experience this medium, which I love and use almost exclusively,
is best left to at least an intermediate level because of all the exceptions
to the basic rules of exposure and development techniques. The students are
often seduced by the effect but usually don't get the background stuff.

Just a thought, but if you have many students who want to try IR,
why not bulk-load your film and save much of that $11?  (I don't
know of any bulk source for Konica 750, but HIE is readily
available in 150' rolls that fit a standard bulk loader.)
