Hi all,
I would like to have your opinion re this idea of mine. I do brush processing, in darkness obvs and it is long and boring. Would be nice of course to see in the dark. Yep I could buy night vision goggles (expensive) so i thought what about this...
I have a digital (professionally converted to full IR) IR camera, it is very light weight.
If i turn on an IR light in the darkroom, I could then turn on the IR camera and use its screen for night vision.
I could construct a little rig above the dish so i can look at what I am doing with the brush when I develop.
Does anyone think this is viable?
I guess my questions are 2:
1. will the IR camera "see" with the IR light?
2. can normal panchromatic film be fogged by the IR light in the darkroom? (that is the big question)
I tried to google question no 2 specially, with no luck. Can anyone here help me?
thanks in advance.
Of course the price of an IR light is so low, I could test this idea anyway, but I would like to know in advance if it is a no-go from the start! (time is...)
