I like having the extra possible color spaces to work with when I want
It's gay and retarded.
I really like IR, it’s a fun shooting experience made much easier now that i have a rangefinder. I’ve been shooting IR for several years now, and only now I’m I really starting to «get» it. Pyrocat has been my developer of choice for it now. However I only like B&W IR, i think films like aerochrome and the full spectrum digital stuff is kind of silly unless you use the colors for a reason. When I say this I’m reminded of the photographer who shot child soldiers in Africa on aerochrome.

>>4493043Wow another pyro user. Pyrocat MC is my go to these days. Did you mix your own? Are you using pyrocat HD?
>>4493052i’m a pleb so i use this
>>4493057Nice. 510 pyro is better for smaller negatives and a good "beginner" pyro anyways. If stained fixer bothers you pyrocat MC does not turn my TF4 fixer piss yellow.It's quite easy to mix and super inexpensive if you ever decide to give it a shot. The only pain is getting some of the chemicals to dissolve fully in the propylene glycol if you choose to use it for shelf stability. Photographers formulary has all the raw chems for it.
>>4493043censor because blue board but earlier when i was using IR I found some grow bulbs that emit the frequencies of light IR is especially sensitive to. made for some of my favorite images like picrel
>>4493033Takes one to know one
A DIY full spectrum conversion is a great way to get some use out of an older camera
