Abstract
A compact developer concentrate composition for color photographic development that has a reduced number of parts is described. The compact developer concentrate composition includes a concentrate and a coated solid. The coating of the solid remains insoluble in the concentrate, but is easily dissolved upon mixing with water to prepare a replenisher and/or working strength developer. The compact developer concentrate composition is stable, compact, easy to use, has good water solubility upon dilution with water, minimizes mixing errors, and remains free of degradation during long-term storage. A method of processing image-wise exposed photographic color silver halide emulsions using the developer concentrate composition is also provided.
