COLOR IR FILM ANSWERS TO SEVERAL QUESTIONS

["Rolland Elliott" <rolland_elliott@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

ANSWERS TO SEVERAL QUESTIONS ARE POSTED BELOW:

I just wondered....do you roll the film yourself...and I'm assuming of 
course
the film is fresh....I just paid $25 for ONE roll through B+H...

YES THE FILM IS BULK LOADED OFF OF 400' ROLLS  USING A SPECIAL EXTRA LARGE 
ALDEN BULK LOADER., AND IS FRESH. I KEEP IT IN MY FREEZER. IT IS LOADED IN 
COMPLETE DARKENESS.

I would be interested in buying some color EIR film from you if I could get 
in in a couple of weeks.  I am assuming that there are 36 exposures to a 
roll.

YES. THERE ARE 36 EXP PER ROLL, AND SOMETIMES AN EXTRA TWO OR THREE. AND I 
HAVE IT IN STOCK.

Could you also give me some tips on exposure and focusing.  I am also 
assuming that the focusing will be the same as B&W.

I SERIOUSLY RECOMMEND BRACKETING YOUR FIRST ROLL. I WOULD SUGGEST SHOOTING 
AT EI 320 AND BRACKETING 1/3 STOPS AROUND THIS AT EI 250 AND EI 400. METER 
THROUGH A MEDIUM TO DARK YELLOW FILTER. DON'T WORRY IF IT IS A WRATTEN #12 
OR #15, AS LONG AS IT IS MEDIUM TO DARK YELLOW IT WILL BE FINE. THERE IS NO 
NEED FOR FOCUS CORRECTION, JUST FOCUS NORMALLY. ALSO READ THE INFRARED FAQ 
THAT CLIVE JUST MENTIONED IT WILL ANSWER 99% OF YOUR QUESTIONS.

Rolland-  what type of film is this?  color, black and white, is it hand
rolled?

I SELL BOTH COLOR AND B&W INFRARED KODAK FILMS . PRICE IS THE SAME FOR BOTH 
$8 A ROLL. THE B&W IR FILM I BULK LOAD USES SPECIAL CANISTERS AND LEADERS SO 
IT CAN BE LOADED IN SUBDUED LIGHT. THE COLOR IR FILM CAN BE LOADED IN 
SUBDUED LIGHT ALSO. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE PUSH PROCESSING THE COLOR IR FILM IT 
SHOULD BE LOADED IN DARKNESS. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT PUSH PROCESSING IS, 
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

PEACE, ROLLAND
