infrared.....faking it
« on: July 19, 2010, 11:10:12 PM »
Decided to try some Ilford SFX in the Mamiya 6 with the R72 filter to see what kind of infrared effect I would get since it is a "pseudo" infrared film.

Here are two shots, each around 8 seconds long at F/16.

The horses were just fed so not moving too much for the 8 second exposure.

good to see you putting the old camera to good use Becky :) Can you tell her that I miss her ;)

the SFX can be quite convincing in the right conditions cant it?

Nice!

The second in particular, the grass and the bush to the left
are very convincing.

Nice dark skies too.

I have some of this film now in 135 and 120 so just waiting
for the clouds to move away here on the west coast of
Ireland.

Becky... wonderful shots ! I love the sky on the first pic...

I have one 35mm I bought about 8 years ago and never got a chance to use it. I didn't know the film is not considered infrared but I'm sure 7dayshop sold me as one !

Nice work, Becky. Do you still use a filter with this - sorry to sound ignorant :-[

It is filtered Phil.

I used an R72, since that's the only one I have for IR.   :)

Yes, Leon I will pass the message along!  ;)  Although she is getting along quite well here in the sunny southwest!
