Is the Ilford SFX an infrared film?!?

I went to the lomo gallery store in New York and saw this film which I had never seen before. Thought I'd give it a try. Really love the the way the photos came out, but I realised that this film should not be used in low light.

Someone told me that this is an infrared film so that might explain the darkness in the low light conditions.

In a city where grit meets endless opportunity, few places are as creatively fulfilling and inspiring as New York City. With its restless ambition, constant motion, and relentless creativity, it’s no wonder artists and visionaries have flocked here for generations. From timeless brownstones to avant-garde art spaces, every street corner tells a story – and every Lomographer should visit at least once. Expect towering skylines, subway musicians, gritty graffiti, and flashes of cinematic wonder woven into everyday life. This is the city that never sleeps – because it’s too busy constantly reinventing itself.
