A silver halide color photographic material having at least one silver halide emulsion layer on a support is color developed after imagewise exposure, followed by desilverization, wherein the photographic material has a total dry film thickness of 8 to 22 .mu.m, the concentration of ammonium ions contained in a processing solution having fixing ability used in desilverization is 0 to 50 mol % based on the total cations, and the processing solution having fixing ability contains at least one kind of thioether compound, thereby improving desilverization performance in continuous processing and preventing yellow stains from increasing.

Method for processing silver halide color photographic material

A processing method for silver halide photographic material is disclosed, in which at least one hydrophilic colloidal layer containing a dye of a solid fine grain dispersion. The processing method is carried out by processing the photographic material with a solution having a fixing ability containing at least one compound represented by formula (A):

Processing method for silver halide photographic material

A method of processing an imagewise exposed silver halide color photographic material is disclosed, wherein the photographic material comprises a support having thereon a photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a silver halide emulsion having a silver chloride content of at least 80 mol %. The processing method comprises the steps of color developing the photographic material in a color developing solution, and then bleach-fixing in a bleach-fixing solution, further comprising replenishing the bleach-fixing solution as the photographic material is processed by adding thereto a regenerated bleach-fixing replenisher and collecting the resulting overflow solution from the bleach-fixing tank, the regenerated bleach-fixing replenisher comprising a regenerating agent and the overflow solution from the bleach-fixing tank, and wherein the solids content of the regenerating agent is at least 70 wt % of the total weight of the regenerating agent. In accordance with the present method, repeated reuse of the used bleach-fixing solution as a replenisher is achieved without adversely affecting the desilvering property and color reproducibility of the processing solution. Processing of a photographic material having a high silver chloride content photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer in accordance with the present method provides excellent photographic images having good storage stability.

Method of processing silver halide color photographic material

A silver halide color photographic material is described comprising a support having provided thereon one or more red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers, one or more green sensitive silver halide emulsion layers and one or more blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers wherein the average silver iodide content of silver halide in all the silver halide emulsion layers is not less than 10 mol% and the silver halide color photographic material contains a compound represented by the following general formula (I):

Silver halide color photographic material

A method of processing a silver halide color photographic material is disclosed, comprising a support having provided thereon at least one light-sensitive emulsion layer, which comprises the steps of color developing the material with a developer to which a replenisher is added and bleaching the developed material, wherein the material contains a coupler represented by the following general formula (I) and the amount of replenisher added to the color developer is 600 ml or less per m.sup.2 of the material: ##STR1## wherein A represents a coupler group, and when A is a phenol or naphthol coupler group, n is 1, and when A is any other coupler group, n is 0; and R represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or a pyridyl group. Images having excellent photographic characteristics are obtained by the method even though the amount of the replenisher is reduced.
