        Yep - one more stop needed w/ the #87

        I kept aperture at f11 and shifted shutter speed to
        1/60th - I was using a leafshutter rangefinder, though.

        It appeared to come out correctly - very nice, actually
        Remember that most of the visible light spectrum has already
        been cut out even w/ the #25 red, so we are just eliminating
        that last little bit of visible light when going on to the #87
        and the IR content is all still passing to the film.
