摘要:
A color negative photographic film wherein on the curve of density versus log E for each color sensitive record: (1) a straight line, which connects the point at density Dmin+0.1 and the point at 1.5log E above the exposure required for density Dmin+0.2, has a mathematical slope .ltoreq. 0.50; and (2) the difference in log E is .gtoreq.1.7 between the point 0.9log E above the exposure required for density Dmin+0.2 and the point where the density difference is 0.1 between the curve and the straight line which results from a linear regression of the three density points at exposures 0.3log E, 0.9log E, and 1.5log E above the exposure required for the density Dmin+0.2; and (3) the difference in log E is .gtoreq.1.20 between the exposure needed for density Dmin+0.1 and the point that corresponds to the exposure, in lux-seconds, of 9.2/(Film Speed). The exposure of the foregoing gray card is a typical normal exposure based on the film speed rating (i.e. the film is not overexposed or underexposed).
摘要:
Color negative photographic films having red, green and blue color sensitive records, wherein the ratio of the toe area contrast to the mid-scale contrast for each of the red, green and blue color records is less than or equal to 0.80, and either at least two color records having a toe-area contrast less than or equal to 0.42 or a mid-scale contrast less than or equal to 0.55, or the film having a speed rating of ISO 200 or greater. The mid-scale contrast for a color record is defined as the slope of a straight line connecting a point C and and a point D on the characteristic curve of Status M density versus log Exposure for the color record, where points C and D are located by defining a point A on the characteristic curve at a density level 0.1 above minimum density, a point B is located on the characteristic curve at an exposure value +1.0 Log Exposure beyond point A, and points C and D are located at exposure values -0.45 log Exposure and +0.45 log Exposure with respect to point B, respectively. The toe-area contrast is the slope of a straight line connecting a point E and a point F on the characteristic curve, where point E is located at (mid-scale contrast)/6 density units above minimum density, and point F is located at 0.3 log Exposure higher in exposure on the characteristic curve than point E. Use of such a color negative films are particularly advantageous in making telecine transfers.
