4x5 infrared nightime flash photography

[Gerry]

Does anyone have any personal knowledge or experiance shooting IR film at night with a flash that has a IR filter on it?

Been doing some research into this type of photography (totally new to me) and was curious whether anyone here had tried it.

My thinking is to use 4x5 IR film with my new Razzle rangefinger 4x5 and a Vivitar 283 with IR filter attached to make these images. I want to shoot street life in Bangkok at night.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks Guys

Attached is a Weegee photograph taken in a theatre with IR film and I believe a flashbulb coated to be a black out bulb(IR filter?).

I moved this to the technique section, guess it works better there. Sorry for the mistake, posting here a bit new for me.

Lots of IR info, including flash filtration:
