I found a roll of this film in the house. Don't know where it came from, I didnt buy it. A while back someone gave myself and my wife a box of random , out of date film, so maybe that is where. I found it while rummaging thru our junk drawer in the kitchen. Anyway, I didnt even realize it was infrared film until I was reading about processing AFTER I shot the roll. Developed with Rodinal, interesting results. I like it, too bad it's nearly $10 a roll!!!
Here is one, I'll post the rest after the prints dry. Anyone else?

I have shot one roll, and have another in camera. I used a red filter (25) and EI of 40 my results for a first roll were really good. I usually takes three rolls before everything is dialed in. Here is one from the first roll.

Hi, thanks! Looks great, I need to pick up myself a red filter for sure. Can I ask what developer you are using to process it?
 
Great film, I love it.

good results from a dark red filter too.

This one with the IR filter made for it, other IR filters are similar.
5 stops more exposure, developed in ID11 1:1 as per the box.
(came out a bit thin..)

fidget, looks great. I purposely choose my red filter instead of my R72, because I didn't want the IR effect. This film is great for haze cutting and it is also very contrasty. It (with the red filter) has a 1940s look to it. I like it very much and pesphoto I used HC-110h for 18 minutes which is what was on the inside of the box (HC-110b for 9 minutes). Here is one to show the haze cutting (and the contrast):
