Re: MZ-S and HSIE film
Hi Kevin, I tried when I got it some years ago, it does not work for IR. I then used my PZ1-p and worked fine.

William, I have used my PZ1-p without a problem, and it has a plastic window. I never had a problem with it!

Re: MZ-S and HSIE film
I shot a number of HIE rolls with the PZ-1. I covered the DX window with a bit of aluminum foil, just a bit bigger than the window, then covered it with a piece of electric tape. No leaks fogs etc. I heard the K1000 pressure plate dimles can harm HIE film.

Re: MZ-S and HSIE film
I shot HIE film in my Contax G2, which had both a DX window and an infrared sprocket hole counter. Never bothered my photography one whit. Godfrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

Not harm but since HIE has no anti-halation layer can end up being part of the image due to reflection. I've shot HIE in an Me-Super, LX, and Pz-1p with no problem. No special precautions on the Pz-1p WRT the window. Your comment on the lack of an anti-halation layer in HEI is right on the mark. A lot of the attributes of this film - like handling it in total darkness - that are assumed to be the result of it's IR sensitivity are really the result of it having no anti-halation layer. It 'pipes light' and if you accidentally set your camera to bulb setting in the middle of a roll (I have), you can do just as much damage or more to the roll as you can do loading it in direct sunlight. - MCC -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mark Cassino Photography Kalamazoo www.markcassino.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
MZ-S and HSIE film
Does anybody know If High Speed Infrared Emulsion film can be used with the MZ-S? Does the internal infrared mechanism affect it?

Use a different camera. The infared system counts sprocket holes passing in the MZ-S. Regards, Bob S.
