Night Vision Goggles for use with Color Film

[Mark432]

Has anyone used night vision goggles for processing or exposing color film in the darkroom???

I have worked in a few labs where the staff had night vision goggles in event of emergency, say if a dip and dunk film processor crashed rather than turn the lights on and ruin the film night vision goggles are worn.

We used them at Kodak, but be careful, the green flare from the phosphor that leaks around the eyes will fog film. You need high grade masks around the eyes.

First , Thank you for your reply.
I'm currently doing Kirlian Photography with a very large Kirlian camera and utilizing 8 X 10 Color film. My problem has been registering the items on the film in the dark, and I thought night vision glasses such as Viper woulkd be a big help[. What are your thoughts??
