ILFORD DELTA 3200 PROF. ISO 1600/33° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: 3200 Delta With a nominal speed rating of ISO 1250 (ISO 1600 when developed in Ilford Microphen), Delta 3200 gets its name from the fact that it pushes very well to EI 3200 (and even to EI 12,500 when necessary). It can also be pulled to EI 400 with excellent results. A four-part emulsion featuring Ilford's proprietary core-shell technology in the key behind this performance. KODAK T-MAX P3200 EI 800-6400 Grain: RMS 18 RP: 125/40 lpm ID: TMZ, 5054 T-Max P3200 has excellent speed characteristics—it can be pushed to EI 50,000 for surveillance work and exposed at EI 3200-6400 for general shooting—with good grain and sharpness at the lower film speeds. We've used T-Max P3200 for many subjects in all kinds of lighting and have found it to be an excellent choice whenever film speeds above EI 800 are required. AGFA SCALA 200X PROF. ISO 200/24° Grain: RMS 11 RP: 120/50 lpm ID: Scala 200X Scala 200X Professional is a medium-speed panchromatic black-and-white reversal film that produces slides with clear highlights, uniform graded midtones and rich blacks. It can be pushed three stops or pulled one, but requires special processing, and is sold (in five-roll pro packs) only by Agfa professional dealers and the pro labs that offer the service. Contact Agfa at 1-800-AGFAPRO for the names of current labs offering the film and processing. KODAK HIGH SPEED INFRARED EI 50 Grain: Not stated RP: 80/32 lpm ID: HIE, 2481 High Speed Infrared is sensitive to infrared as well as some visible radiation, and produces fairly grainy, moderately high-contrast black-and-white images. For special-effects work, rate the film at EI 50, place a red No. 25 filter over the camera lens, and bracket exposures. Infrared-emitting subjects (hot objects, healthy foliage and clouds) appear white; clear skies and water appear black. KODAK EKTACHROME INFRARED EIR EI varies Grain: RMS 17 RP: Not stated ID: EIR Ektachrome Infrared IR-sensitive color-slide film has always been lots of fun, the big drawback being it required special processing. This current version uses standard E-6 processing. Like its predecessor, EIR yields weird false-color effects—magenta foliage, green skies and the like—when exposed through a red No. 25 filter at EI 100 or a No. 58 green filter at EI 40 (as always with infrared film, bracket exposures widely). KODAK EKTACHROME EDUPE EI varies Grain: Varies RP: Not stated ID: EDUPE Ektachrome Edupe is a new tungsten-balanced low-contrast film designed to produce terrific duplicates from Kodachrome and Ektachrome originals. It features extremely fine grain and great sharpness (although both depend in part on the original image being copied). Edupe produces better highlight and shadow detail than the films it replaces (Ektachrome Slide Duplicating 5071, 6121, 7121 and SO-366). KONICA INFRARED 750NM EI 32 Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: Infrared 750nm A fine-grained black-and-white infrared-sensitive film, Konica Infrared 750nm (the number refers to its peak spectral sensitivity at 750 nanometers) is great for landscapes, aerial photography and scientific work. For optimum results, use a red filter, rate the film at EI 32 (and open up two stops to compensate for the filter—try 1/60 at f/5.6 in sunny frontlighting) and bracket exposures. POLAROID POLAPAN ISO 125/22° Grain: Not stated RP: 90 lpm ID: CT PolaPan is unique: It's the only continuous-tone black-and-white instant film, and it produces 35mm black-and-white positive transparencies rather than negatives. It processes in 60 seconds in the Polaroid AutoProcessor. Like the other Polaroid "instant" 35mm films, it has an unusual surface reflectance that can mislead in-camera meters that measure off the film.
