macophot IR film

from brad daly (bwdaly@hiwaay.net)
my photo shop has recently started stocking the macophot infrared film, distributed by cachet. i've looked at the macophot and cachet websites and searched the photo.net forums, but i haven't yet been able to find any definitive information on exposure and development. i realize this film is rather new and still somewhat rare, but i'm wondering of anyone has used it with good results. i've only used kodak's HIE and have seen quite a bit of work on ilford's SFX. how does it compare with these films?

the macophot website suggest an *unfiltered* starting EI of 100, which would be an EI of 12 with a red-25 filter.

XTOL seems to be the developer of choice. macophot suggests XTOL 1:3, 70 degrees, 14 minutes, agitation every 30 seconds.

any help will be greatly appreciated.

best, brad daly
