乾式熱現像および湿式化学修復を含むカラーフォトサーモグラフィーフィルムの現像処理

Japanese Patent JP2004503817

A

The present invention is directed to a method of processing color photographic film that has been imagewise exposed in a camera, said film having at least three light-sensitive units which have their individual sensitivities in different wavelength regions, each of the units comprising at least one light-sensitive silver-halide emulsion, one or more organic silver salts, a binder, and dye-providing coupler, which method in order comprises: (a) thermally developing the film step without any externally applied developing agent, comprising heating said film to a temperature greater than 80° C. in an essentially dry process, such that an internally located blocked developing agent in reactive association with each of said three light-sensitive units becomes unblocked to form a developing agent, whereby the unblocked developing agent forms dyes by reacting with the dye-providing couplers to form a color image; and (b) scanning the color image to provide a digital electronic record capable of generating a positive color image in a display element, wherein the silver halide and the organic silver salts in the film are removed and/or stabilized before or after step (b), such that the film is in an archival state. Typically, a positive-image color print from the desilvered film. Optionally, the developed metallic silver can also be removed.
