Claims
- 1. A photographic processing kit comprising:an “unmasked” color negative silver halide photographic film that is capable of providing a color negative image having a contrast of at least 0.83, a Dmin less than 0.45, an rms granularity of less than 17, a modulation transfer function greater than 39 DMT, a resolving power greater than 80 at 1000:1 high contrast test target and a resolving power greater than 63 at 1.6:1 low contrast test target, and a photographic color developing composition that, in aqueous form, has a pH of from about 10.2 to about 10.6 and comprises at least 0.006 mol/l of a color developing agent.
- 2. The photographic processing kit of claim 1, wherein said color developing composition has a pH of from about 10.35 to about 10.45.
- 3. The photographic processing kit of claim 1, wherein said color developing composition comprises said color developing agent at a concentration of from about 0.006 to about 0.024 mol/l.
- 4. The photographic processing kit of claim 1, wherein said color negative silver halide photographic film has an aerial film speed of at least 64.
- 5. The photographic processing kit of claim 1, wherein said color negative silver halide photographic film is a multicolor film having red color record having a peak sensitivity of from about 580 to about 700 nm, a green color record having a peak sensitivity of from about 500 to about 600 nm, and a blue color record having a peak sensitivity of from about400 to about 500 nm.
- 6. The photographic processing kit of claim 1, wherein color negative silver halide photographic film has no more than 0.05 mmol/m2 of color correcting chemistry.
- 7. The photographic processing kit of claim 1, wherein said color developing composition comprises bromide ions at a concentration of at least 0.013 mol/l.
- 8. The photographic processing kit of claim 7, wherein said color developing composition comprises bromide ions at a concentration of from about 0.013 to about 0.2 mol/l.
- 9. The photographic processing kit of claim 7, wherein said color developing composition comprises bromide ions provided as sodium bromide.
