I'm shooting an extended project that will include some concert photography. The venue forbids flash photography during the show, which presents something of a problem. Light levels will be low and I don't want to have to switch to digital for this section of the project.
So, I thought about shooting Rollei IR 400 with an IR flash. I am not looking for the IR look, so I will not use an IR filter on the camera lens.
Instead I am aiming for the IR filtered flash to act as an invisible IR fill light that will be picked up by the extra IR sensitivity of the film.
So, essentially I will shoot:
- Mixed light
- No IR filter on lens
- Heavy duty IR emitting flash (on camera)
- Rate Rollei IR 400 @ 400
Also does anyone have any experience pushing Rollei IR 400 to 800 or 1250?
I'm going to run a few tests in advance, but would like to hear from anyone who has experience with this.
Thanks in advance.
