Abstract
The invention provides photographic element comprising a first light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith a cyan dye-forming coupler, a second light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith a magenta dye-forming coupler, and a third light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith a yellow dye-forming coupler, wherein the normalized spectral transmission density distribution curve of the dye formed by the cyan coupler upon development with a p-phenylenediamine developer has a density between 0.7 and 0.78 at 600 nm and a density between 0.8 and 0.91 at 610 nm. Such an element enables an increase in the color gamut for imaging.
