Abstract: A method for forming a direct positive color image by subjecting an inner latent image type light-sensitive silver halide color photographic material for formation of a direct positive color image, having at least one light-sensitive emulsion layer containing inner latent image type silver halide grains which have not been previously fogged on the grain surfaces to color developing processing after image exposure, which comprises developing an inner latent image type light-sensitive silver halide color photographic material for formation of a direct positive color image wherein a silver halide emulsion in at least one light-sensitive emulsion layer consists substantially of a silver chlorobromide emulsion with the use of a color developing solution containing an N-hydroxyalkyl-substituted-p-phenylenediamine derivative at 30.degree. C. or higher for not longer than 150 seconds.

Abstract: A method of storing a liquid color developer and a liquid bleach-fixer in a container made of plastic material having an oxygen permeation coefficient of 0 to 50 m/(m.sup.2 atm day) at temperatures of 20.degree. C. and relative humidity of 60%. The developer contains an aromatic primary amine color developing agent; a hydroxylamine of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen or alkyl having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, provided that at least one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 is an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms and that R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be combined with each other to form a ring; and an alkaline ingredient for adjusting the pH of the developer to not less than 9.5. The bleach-fixer contains a ferric aminopolycarboxylate, 0 to 1.times.10.sup.-3 mols per liter of an aminopolycarboxylic acid based on the total bleach-fixer, a thiosulfate, and 1.times.10.sup.-3 to 2.times.10.sup.-1 mol per liter of said liquid bleach-fixer of a sulfite.

Abstract: A replenishing process for use in the development of an image-wise exposed silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material in which a color developer replenisher containing 0-3.0.times.10.sup.-3 mole of bromide is added to a color developer in a volume of between 0.5 and 9 ml per 100 cm.sup.2 of silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material.

Abstract: The present invention provides a container for containing a photographic processing solution which comprises a housing member and a partion member, thereby the container is divided into two chambers of which the first chamber is prepared for containing the photogaphic processing solution and the second chamber is prepared for collecting the waste solution. One part of the housing member forming the first chamber comprises a oxygen shelter for restraining oxygen permiation therethrough into the first chamber below 20 ml/m.sup.2 /24 hrs. The second chamber has a solution-absorbing material therein for facilitating the collection of the waste solution.

Abstract: Disclosed is an automatic processing machine for a light-sensitive color photographic material, having a color developing tank as the formost tank of the processing tanks and a stabilizing tank as the last tank of the processing tanks, which comprises having a system for conveying a light-sensitive material which will not bring the stabilizing liquid components filled in the stabilizing tank into the color developing solution filled in the color developing tank.According to the automatic processing machine of the present invention, the technical task can be solved as a matter of course, and moreover no requirement for piping, no discharging of waste solutions of processing and its small size will result in exhibiting such effects that it can be installed on a floor of higher stage and also be moved, if necessary.

Abstract: An automatic processing machine for photography which performs developing processing of a photographic light-sensitive material automatically while replenishing a processing solution tank with a replenisher solution from a replenisher tank, wherein said replenisher tank comprises a means for circulating and stirring having a jetting section for jetting a processing solution in said replenisher tank to the vicinity of the solution surface in said replenisher tank.The automatic processing machine according to the present invention is capable of mixing and dissolving rapidly even a processing solution containing a poorly soluble alcohol to prepare a processing solution, without any need of a special and separate dissolving tank.

Abstract: An automatic processing machine for photography which performs developing processing of a photographic light-sensitive material automatically while replenishing a replenisher solution from a replenisher tank to a processing solution tank. A pipe having orifices therein is arranged approximately centrally in the replenisher tank. A vessel loading mouth capable of holding a processing agent kit vessel obliquely to the surface of the processing solution is provided at an upper opening portion of said replenisher tank.

Abstract: Method for forming a direct positive-color image in which an imagewise exposure is applied to a direct positive silver halide color photosensitive material comprising a support and at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer which contain internal latent image type silver halide grains whose surfaces are not fogged, said method including applying a fogging exposure and color development wherein said fogging exposure is applied in a wet condition with a solution containing at least one fluorescent whitening agent.
