Abstract: Silver bromoiodide color negative films can be rapidly color developed using stabilized color developer solutions kept at high temperatures with minimal changes in the resulting color record densities. The compositions are stabilized by adjusting or maintaining the pH to 9 or more, but below 10.

Abstract: Silver bromoiodide color negative films can be rapidly color developed using heat stabilized color developing solutions kept at high temperatures with minimal changes in the resulting color record densities. These advantages are achieved using specific hydroxylamine derivatives as antioxidants in the color developer solution.

Abstract: Silver bromoiodide color negative films can be rapidly processed using shortened color development times and specific amounts of color developing agent and bromide ion. After development, and optionally desilvering or fixing, the developed film is scanned to form density representative digital signals for the color records. These signals are then digitally manipulated to correct both interimage interactions and gamma mismatches among the color records to produce a digital record that is capable of providing a display image having desired aim color and tone scale reproduction. That digital record can then be stored or used to provide corrected display images, such as color prints, using output display devices.

Abstract: A simple and effective bleaching method includes the use of a bleaching solution including a peroxide bleaching agent and chloride ion in an amount of at least 0.35 mol/l. An organic phosphonic acid or tertiary aminocarboxylic acid can also be present for stability. The method is useful for bleaching color photographic films containing at least 20 mol % silver bromide and from 0 to about 0.5 mol % silver iodide in at least one silver halide emulsion.
