I have used Kodak, Konica, and Maco in the ZX5n. All three have been trouble free - except for any failures introduced by me. Don't forget to be paranoid and black tape the window - I'm pretty sure it doesn't help, but it makes me feel better <grins>. The results most pleasing to me have been achieved with Kodak. However, a friend shoots Konica 750 in medium format and gets excellent results.

Ed,

I'm glad to hear you've been successful running infrared through the zx5n.
I've been wanting to try but been hesitant on dropping $10/roll and then
have them fog up. Can you let me know know which IR film you used?

Thanks,

Delano
