Subject: [Leica] Re: what about the Iford SFX

Ilford SFX is "not" a real infrared film. Just an extended range film. The
Konica 750 infrared film will give you that infrared look, but Kodak High
Speed Infrared film is the "real" thing. You have to load your camera in
the darkroom. See Kodak & Konica web sites for more information.
