A color light-sensitive material is provided, comprising on a support at least a light-sensitive silver halide, a binder, a dye providing substance which provides a mobile dye in inverse-relationship to the reduction reaction of silver ion to silver, and a development inhibitor precursor of the general formula (I):

Color light-sensitive material

A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material is described, comprising a support having provided thereon at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer associated with a substantially immobile, positive one-equivalent redox compound capable of releasing a photographically useful compound or a precursor thereof as a result of a redox reaction, said compound being represented by formula (I) ##STR1## wherein Acp represents an anion center precursor capable of causing --Z--Q to be released by a quinonemethide type releasing reaction when being reduced R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group; Z represents a divalent atomic group; Q represents a group capable of becoming a photographically useful compound or a precursor thereof when released, provided that Q does not contain an atom or atomic group which functions as an electrophilic center that induces an intramolecular substitution reaction; Ball represents a ballast group; M represents a substituent; A represents an organic group which connects Acp, ##STR2## M, and Ball; and n and m each represents an integer of 1 or more.
