[Leica] Infrared Photos, Konica 750 and Ilford SFX

[Nathan Wajsman]

They are beautiful, Jim. You can find all the info you need in Ilford’s data sheet:

Indeed as you suspect, the light sensitivity is up to 740 nanometers. By coincidence, I just developed a roll of MF (6x4.5 in my case) SFX, but I shot it as a regular B&W film, with no filter. It works quite well this way too, making it possibly the most versatile B&W film out there.

Cheers,
Nathan
