Hi, I have scanned few photos from my first roll of "IR" (although it's just near-infra-red SFX tru a ~89A filter), and uploaded them to my web. The photos were manipulated, some more, some less, by burning and some dodging, nothing I wouldn't do in the darkroom. One reason was to make more out of the crappy scans on my old old old flatbed (which has a very limited tonal range), second was to make the foliage effect more visible. Again, nothing that couldn't be done in the darkroom with some masking and burning in multicontrast, although it's easier to do on the computer.
Please critique and comment! I am really just starting with IR or near-IR films, this was my first, so any - even very negative <g> - critique welcome. All shot wihth M 2/35 lens on LX, tru a GDR IR filter (equiv. of Hoya R72 I guess). After some experimentation I established that the LX's metering is just fine for me, if set at iso 200, tru the filter, and with my developing of the film. YMMV though. oops: the address: www.volny.cz/fotof/scapes/ir Good light, Frantisek Vlcek - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
