Response to ILFORD SFX200

SFX-200 is what is called extended red sensitivity film. It produces IR effects when used with red filters. I've tried it several times and found that the efect is not strong enough for me, but still got some interesting results. If you are novice I would recomend you to use films such as ILFORD HP-5+ (actually somebody said that SFX-200 is an extended red version of HP-5+) and KODAK Tri-X. Both have exellent tonal range and good expolsure and processing lattitude. If you develop your films yourself, I can give you some practical tips on developers etc. Hope this helps. Evgeni
