  • Patent number: 5861942
    Abstract: A photographic print processing apparatus, comprises (a) a first exposing section to expose an image of a photographic film onto an unexposed photographic paper; (b) a development processing section to develop the exposed photographic paper; (c) a first conveying passage to convey the exposed photographic paper from the first exposing section to the development processing section; (d) a second conveying passage branched from the first conveying passage and joined with the first conveying passage; (e) a second exposing section, provided on the second conveying passage, to expose an image onto a photographic paper; and (f) a control section to control the first passage and the second passage so as to convey the photographic paper.

  • Patent number: 5038168
    Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for printing an image of a negative film on a photographic print paper. The apparatus is equipped with a zoom lens for changing a printing magnification rate and the zoom lens incorporates an adjustable diaphragm for changing an aperture size. A standard F-number for each of possible magnification rates is predetermined in view of actual printing result, and a resultant F-number is stored in a memory for each of possible magnification rates. In the apparatus provided a sensor, disposed on the optical axis of the zoom lens, for detecting the illuminance of a projected surface on the photographic print paper and CPU for controlling the adjustable diaphragm in response to the detected illuminance to determine an optimum aperture size to obtain the predetermined F-number for each of possible magnification rates. The optimum aperture size is stored in the memory for each of possible magnification rates.
