A silver halide color photographic material improved in image quality such as sharpness and graininess is disclosed. The silver halide color photographic material is comprises support having thereon photographic component layers comprising at least two silver halide emulsion layers, adjacently arranged to each other, having the same color sensitivity and different speed from each other. In this photographic material the highest speed layer among these emulsion layers contains a DIR compound capable of releasing a diffusible development inhibitor or a diffusible compound capable of releasing a development inhibitor, and the total thickness of the silver halide emulsion layers is within the range of from 1.5 .mu.m to 5 .mu.m, and the silver halide emulsion layers are allowed to have the interposition of a non-light-sensitive intermediate layer.
