Rollei Infrared 400 Black and White Negative Film (4 x 5", 25 Sheets)
Key Features
- IR-Sensitive Panchromatic B&W Neg. Film
- ISO 400/27° without Filtration
- 650-750nm Infrared Sensitivity Range
- Very Wide Exposure Latitude
Rollei Infrared 400 is a unique infrared-sensitized panchromatic black and white negative film with a nominal sensitivity of ISO 400/27° without filtration. It is sensitive to IR wavelengths within the range of 650-750nm and can be used to produce unique halation effects with filtration and by varying the exposure length. It is suitable for working in both daylight and tungsten conditions and is characterized by a fine grain structure, notable sharpness, and high resolving power. Additionally, a good contrast profile offers clear separation between shadow and highlight regions. The film's polyester base has been tested to an LE-500 (life expectancy of 500 years) archival rating and also features an anti-static coating. Additionally, this clear base is particularly well-suited to scanning applications.

question
Hi, does this film require any focus shift to account for IR instead of visible light?
IR film requires a focus adjustment - that is, after focusing using visible light, the focus ring is turned the distance between the white and red focus line/dot on the focus scale, because the focal point changes slightly in IR. That said, because the film is large format, it's a bit more difficult to gauge with bellows focusing.

question
What are the specific filter that one should use with this film?
R72 filter. Hoya is probably the best. There are cheaper filters but from what I've read they vary widely in quality and don't necessarily filter the proper wavelengths as the Hoya filter certainly does.
