Abstract: Light-sensitive color photographic material which contains on a base in at least one silver halide emulsion layer or an interlayer which is assigned to this and does not contain silver halide, at least one DIR coupler of the formula ##STR1## in which R is alkyl having 1 to 18 carbons atoms or aryl, D is hydrogen, optionally substituted alkyl having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, alkenyl having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, cycloalkenyl having 5 to 10 carbon atoms, aralkyl having 7 to 18 carbon atoms, cyano or halogen and G is a optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, the sum of the carbon atoms in the substituents D and G being at least 5, L.sub.1 is hydrogen or alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, L.sub.

Abstract: Color photographic material is described in which a yellowish image is formed which can be used to print black and white prints. Also present in the layer is a small amount of a more reactive coupler which produces a colored image to which black and white paper is not sensitive. This more reactive coupler reduces the fog in the highlight areas.Most preferably small amounts of other couplers are present which result in a green or brown image which makes it easier for the operator to focus the image.

Abstract: Pyridone dyestuffs of the formula ##STR1## are provided wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen or an optionally substituted alkyl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or heterocyclic radical or an optionally substituted amino group,R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 each independently represent hydrogen, halogen, alkoxy, or optionally substituted alkyl or cycloalkyl,R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 each independently represent hydrogen or an optionally substituted alkyl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or heterocyclic radical or R.sub.5 and R.sub.6, R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 and R.sub.4 and R.sub.6 form heterocyclic rings,Y is hydrogen or hydroxy, --CN, --COOR.sub.7, --CONR.sub.7 R.sub.8 or --COR.sub.7 or an optionally substituted alkyl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or heterocyclic radical, andZ represents --CN, --COOR.sub.9, --CONR.sub.9 R.sub.10, --SO.sub.3 H, --SO.sub.3 .crclbar. or --COR.sub.9, where R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 each independently represent hydrogen or an optionally substituted alkyl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or heterocyclic radical.
