Kodak to End Infrared Film Production
By Ryan • Dec 31st, 2007 • Category: News for Creatives (archives), PhotographyBy Matthew Daneman for the Rodchester Democrat and Chronicle:
“The human eye cannot see infrared radiation, but the camera lens can. And in infrared photos, grass, clouds and tree leaves can glow with the intensity of bright sunshine reflecting off snow, in stark contrast to the darker tree trunks, rocks and sky around them.
However, the industry-leading film that usually makes those shots happen, Eastman Kodak’s HIE-135, is about to come to an end.
Kodak, citing declining sales of the product, plans to quit manufacturing and distributing the infrared film after this year.”
