Shooting Infrared 8x10" B&W Film - Large Format Friday
Рет қаралды 12,033
Last week we worked with color filters for B&W film. This week we're shooting a black and white film that encourages use of a colored filter, infrared! Head out into the field with me and learn about the process and challenges of working with large format IR film.
Film used: (expired) Efke IR 820c
Filter used: R72 (reduces exposure 5 stops)
Camera: 8x10" Tachihara Double Extension field camera
Lenses: Schneider Super Angulon 121mm f/8
Schneider Super Symmar XL 150mm f/5.6

Great video! For those of you who want to try Rollei Infrared 400 (it's still available in 35mm, 120mm and 4x5"!), use a 720nm filter, expose at ISO 12 and develop 12 minutes in XTOL 1+1 with 5 minutes of presoak(!). Range finders (Fuji GW690, Mamiya 7II, Leica M, ...) work especially nicely with infrared film, because you can see through the viewfinder even if a pitch black filter is in front of your lens.

I do wish Adox HR50 would appear in sheets though, that could be a lot of fun. In non-IR it's been an elusive film to figure out (VERY prominent S curve, at least for me in Xtol) - dynamic range seemingly almost like a slide film?

I noticed that the "quarter twist of the knob" @14:27 you appeared to move the lens towards the film. I think that is backwards and that it should be farther away as longer wave lengths will focus at a greater distance. I googled it, but you should too without my input as to the wording of the query. On the lenses for 35mm that I have, the adjustment for IR moves the lens away from the film, see my comment of a few minuets before this one as I wrote it before seeing your manual quarter twist. From what I have read, the amount of correction for every lens is different, depending on its design and can be from zero, to .5% of the focal length.

Great video with a lot of good information and beautiful shots. I do some multispectral shooting on 35mm, so I'm curious if you've ever looked into doing UV landscapes? It usually requires a filter stack with all the associated complications and it can be a little hazy for deep backgrounds but it's still got that cool "world beyond our view" feel
@MatMarrash 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Never tried UV photography before, but may have to give it a go with a digital sensor first to see if it's something to pursue in film (especially large format). I'm always up for "seeing" differently with specialty films.
@turbopanzer 2 жыл бұрын
@@MatMarrash Best of luck if you give it a shot! I'll just pass on a few bits of knowledge then if it will save you or anyone else who's interested some research time. It's my understanding that a lot of standard film stocks are sensitive to the UV at least as low as 360nm. I know Rollei IR is for sure, since I use that for multispectral trichromes. The lenses are what do most of the filtering of UV so older glass with fewer coatings is best. And then you'll have to look at your own circumstances, but a jumping off point for the filter stack research could be a hoya u360 and a schott s8612, which does a good job selecting just the band around 360nm. You lose about 7 stops with that stack on a sunny day.

As some lensed for small format cameras have a mark for focus shift when using IR film, could you make a square ring spacer of a thickness recommended by the lens manufacture to put between the lens board and the camera after focusing in visible unfiltered light, the thickness might vary depending on the filter you are using. I am assuming that the clips that hold the lens board can accommodate what would be in effect a slightly thicker lens board. If the lens only requires .2 to .6 mm adjustment, then you might be able cut the spacers out of old film stock, perhaps blackened with a magic marker and be less dependent on a small aperture to keep things in focus. Please correct me if I am wrong, but my guess is that for the same focal length an "apo" lens might less of a correction than a standard lens.
@mardhukk666 Жыл бұрын
Hi Mat! That's a great video, thanks! I've been just wondering if I understand correctly how to compensate the focus. I've read on the internet that you should extend your bellows by 1/70th of the focal length. It also seems to be right when you look on a regular SLR lenses with the red dot on it (I mean, you should extend the "bellows" rather than reduce). I was a little bit confused, because I've seen that you actually reduced the bellows length. Is that correct?

Of these two, I can only get Rollei IR 400 in 4x5, and the sheets are a bit too long (at least those in the pack I'm using at the moment, I have to check on the next package; interestingly enough they do work in Chamonix 4x5 film holders, but not in Toyo ones). Both are available in 120 and 135, and I do prefer the Rollei IR (shot at EI 200 with pull -1) over the SFX. It does not look good for 8x10 at the moment, sadly, one more reason to stay away from it … ;-)
