EIR is a very different film than HIE b&w Infrared. HIE is
very susceptible to stray light of any sort, especially the
IR frame-counters in newer cameras, due to its lack of the
anti-halation layer in the film base.

If Infrared is to become an interest, one is well served to
just obtain an older mechanical body to dedicate to use w/
HIE Infrared film. ... just my experience & humblest opinion.
