Ilford SFX+Ilford rail mounted filter.

[Mike Kennedy]

Having a go at SFX using a Nikon FM2 with the Ilford infrared filter mounted inside the camera along the film rails.What would be the proper iso? 25,50,100?
I won't be using a tripod (loaned to a friend) and the weather forcast calls for a bright sunny weekend.

Thanks

Set the camera meter @ 800 and dev in Ilford ID11 stock for 18 mins.
This will give you hand held speeds and give me good pictorial results.

Try Ilford`s own suggestions for filter factors, exposure and processing to start with.

Why inside the Camera? :confused:

So you can see what you are shooting. With the filter in front of the lens you can't see through it making hand-held use impractical.

800ASA? That's a hell of a push given Ilford's recommended speed with their filter is 12-50 depending on development (I use it at 6 (on a tripod) : ID-11 1+1 15min). Sure that 800ASA not without the filter?

800ASA?.....Exactly what I thought.
Bob,I've rated it at 50 but my local shop doesn't carry Ilford developers.I can access Rodinal,D-76,or HC-110.What do you think would give me the best results?
I'll check out the digital truth site and do a further web search.Thanks.

IIRC, I used an EI of 40 when doing this; an EI of 200 with the filter on the lens.

I've souped this film in D-76, HC-110 and Rodinal with times and dilutions off the MDC. Works for me.
