Aerochrome II 2443 is an iconic infrared-sensitive film originally designed for aerial vegetation analysis. Unlike traditional color films, Aerochrome captures infrared light, rendering foliage in deep reds and pinks, skies in rich blues, and other elements in surreal hues. Its unique false-color rendering has made it legendary among experimental and artistic photographers.
