Abstract:
Novel system for forming visible images wherein an aqueous alkaline processing composition is applied between a first sheet comprising a photosensitive element and a second sheet including an acid-neutralizing layer, said sheets being adapted for being maintained together after application of the processing composition. In a preferred embodiment, a system is disclosed for forming negative images wherein a developed and fixed negative image in silver is provided with a transparent overlay through which the image may be viewed. In another disclosed embodiment, an image in color, which may be a positive transfer image, is provided with such a transparent overlay.
Abstract:
This disclosure depicts a number of novel Fresnel imaging structures incorporated in photographic rangefinding and viewfinding means. Each Fresnel imaging structure is both focal and afocal for simultaneously providing a view of a selected field and for projecting into the field a virtual image of a rangefinding or framing reticle.
