DESCRIPTION

KODAK Infrared AEROGRAPHIC Film 2424 is a black-and-white negative aerial camera film. It is sensitive to infrared radiation, ultraviolet and visible radiation to approximately 900 nm. Compared with extended red panchromatic-sensitized films, infrared-sensitive films can show increased contrast between water and land, highlight differentiation of vegetation, and greatly improve haze penetration. 2424 Film is especially suited for the reduction of haze effects, for oblique long-distance photography, geological and archaeological studies, agricultural surveys, crop and forestry studies, oceanography, multiband aerial photography, hydrology and other scientific applications where infrared film is needed. It may also be used for camouflage detection. The film has a 4-mil (0.101 mm) ESTAR Base with a fast-drying backing. Its thin, highly-hardened and abrasion-resistant emulsion permits high-temperature rapid processing in modern continuous-processing machines.
