  • Patent number: 7223530
    Abstract: The invention relates to a photographic element comprising a support and at least three color records comprising at least three light sensitive layers and at least two interlayers, wherein the light sensitive layers include cyan, magenta, or yellow dye-forming coupler, the light sensitive layers include silver halide grains comprising greater than 90% silver chloride, scavengers are included in the interlayers, the ratio of the total level of scavenger to the total level of coupler is from 0.15 to 0.50, the ratio of the total level of scavenger to the total level of silver is from 0.05 to 0.15, and the reciprocity characteristics of the silver halide grains are such that for a separation exposure of 1 microsecond and 0.4 seconds, upon development, the difference in maximum density is 10% or less and a method for processing the element comprising color developing the element for less than 30 seconds.

  • Patent number: 5616452
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing a photosensitive material. The apparatus having at least one processing tank containing a processing solution for processing the photosensitive material, a replenishment system for replenishing the processing solution comprising a first part and a second part, the first and second parts each having independent usage rates, means for measuring the distribution of transmittance of the photosensitive material being processed by the at least one processing tank, and means for independently supplying the first and second parts to the at least one processing tank in accordance with the distribution of the transmittance of the photosensitive material being processed, the ratio of the volume of the first part to the volume of the second part to be delivered to the tank being at least 10 to 1.
