The last color infrared film in the world?
« on: November 18, 2011, 10:20:13 PM »
You guys already know this probably, but Kodak Aerochrome's been dead for a while. This guy in Germany says he's got the last of it, and is cutting down bulk stock to make individual rolls of 120 that he's selling.

He says he'll run out in Spring 2012 ):

I know this is a moot point, but I don't understand why they had color infrared film but they never had black & white infrared film because (they said) the nature of the 120 roll made it unworkable. I always wanted 120 b&W infrared so bad!

The efke IR820 in 120 is quite, quite lovely. Far enough off the red-edge to make everything shiny. And AFAIK they still make it....
