Photo Forum / Film Photography / Medium format / January 2004Rolleikin and infrared
Hi, I would like to buy the Rolleikin tool for my Rolleiflex 3,5 T to use it to take infrared photos. Could this be a good idea? Thanks all piterengel > Hi, I would like to buy the Rolleikin tool for my Rolleiflex 3,5 T to > use it to take infrared photos. Could this be a good idea? Have you tried 120 infrared? You might be pleased - and save some money. Macophot makes a good IR 120. Here is a 120 Maco IR picture, processed in Rodinal. (You can get finer grain with any other developer). The picture below necessarily diminished to load quickly on the web. The original is sharper, larger, more luminous. http://WIND.WINONA.MSUS.EDU/~stafford/alma/ Best of luck, jjs > Hi, I would like to buy the Rolleikin tool for my Rolleiflex 3,5 T to > use it to take infrared photos.

The film is so grainy that any benefits from the Rollei lens won't be noticeable.
