Abstract: A camera which permits film units to be initially stored as a plurality of first sheets and an equal number of second sheets. In taking a photograph, a first sheet is exposed and then transferred into correctly aligned contact with a corresponding second sheet, which may constitute a subsequently sealable folder or envelope for containment of the first sheet, or a cover which is bondable to the first sheet. This transfer of a first sheet is effected entirely independently in the camera, or by a camera mechanism acting on a draw mechanism attached firmly but not fixedly to the first sheet, in this latter case the draw mechanism being detached from the first sheet immediately subsequent to transfer thereof into association with the second sheet.

Abstract: In a diffusion transfer color photographic material including a photosensitive element comprising silver halide emulsion layers having associated therewith dye image forming materials, an image receiving element, and a liquid processing composition for developing the silver halide emulsion layers after image-wise exposure and diffusing the dye images formed into the image receiving element, the dye images formed are stabilized and the formation of stains at blank areas is effectively prevented by incorporating one or more N-.alpha.-sulfoalkylated amino acids into at least one of the photosensitive element, the image receiving element or the liquid processing composition. A process using the same is also disclosed.
