Abstract
A color photographic silver halide negative working duplicating element comprising a support bearing, in order from the support, at least one red-sensitive photographic silver halide emulsion layer package comprising at least one cyan image-dye forming coupler that is capable upon exposure and processing of forming a cyan image dye that absorbs in the range of the original image; at least one green-sensitive photographic silver halide emulsion layer package comprising at least one magenta image-dye forming coupler that is capable, upon exposure and processing, of forming a magenta image dye that absorbs in the range of the original image; and at least one blue-sensitive photographic silver halide emulsion layer package comprising at least one yellow image-dye forming coupler that is capable upon exposure and processing of forming a yellow image dye that absorbs in the range of the original image. The silver halide particles in the fastest blue sensitive layer have an equivalent spherical diameter no greater than 0.3 microns, while in the remainder of the layers the silver halide particles have an equivalent spherical diameter of no greater than 0.23 microns. The silver level in the fastest blue sensitive layer is no greater than 30 mg/square foot. A sufficient red absorber is present so that the red record MTF(12) is at least 95% of the green record MTF(12) and the red record F50 is no more than 6/mm less than the green record F50.
