Leica had three different value red filters available in E39:
   
  Hell Rot       ( Light Red )    = HOOCS / 13116
  Mittel Rot    ( Middle Red )  = HOODF / 
  Dunkel Rot  ( Dark Red )     = HOOET /  13126  ( sometimes marked IR )

Len,

Just a standard red filter factor 8. The 3 stop loss reducing the 200ASA to 
the equivalent of 25ASA. Ilford discontinued SFX some 
time last year but after a short absence they re-introduced it.

Thanks for looking.
