Hi all

I'd like to try some of infra-red photography. I have a K1000 and an MZ-5n.
I was thinking of using Kodak High Speed Infra-Red black and white film (HIE
135-36). Now I've read that there is a problem with the dimpled pressure
plate of the K1000 creating a pattern on the Kodak film (for example, see
http://www.mat.uc.pt/~rps/photos/FAQ_IR.html#KDBW   - part 7: Which
Cameras?). I've also read elsewhere that some cameras with a film window can
result in film fogging, although the site I just provided the link for
disputes this. Of course my MZ-5n has a film window.

Anybody on this list have any knowledge on these matters that they can share
with me? Should I be looking at some other kind of Infra-red film, one that
includes an anti-halation layer?

Martin
