DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a photographic processing method for printing, on a photographic paper, a film in which a normal size print designation frame and a panorama or another size print designation frame are mixed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, the size of an image captured by a camera is different on a single negative film, for example,
A panoramic image whose field of view is expanded in the horizontal direction may be captured. Also, there is a possibility that a high-definition size or a cinemascope size will appear. The size of this panoramic image is such that the vertical direction (width direction of the negative film), which is a part of one frame on the negative film, is shortened, and the ratio of the horizontal length to the vertical length is normal. It is larger, for example, about twice.

[0003] When printing on photographic paper at the same scale between the full size and the panorama size, the enlargement ratio for printing a panoramic size print frame is larger than the enlargement ratio for printing a full size print frame. Needs to be increased, and the mask area of the negative film and the printing range of the photographic paper also differ. That is, it is necessary to change the mask area of the negative film and the transport distance of the photographic paper according to each size.

[0004] In such a case, in the conventional printing apparatus,
In one lot (for example, one roll or one roll), printing cannot be performed one by one by changing printing conditions for each frame depending on whether the frame is a full size print frame or a panorama size print frame. After printing, it is necessary to extract and print only a panorama size print frame using a printer dedicated to panorama size printing.

[0005]

However, in printing a film in which a full size print frame and another size print frame such as a panorama are mixed, the film must be set twice. In other words, the process cannot be completed by one batch process.

According to the present invention, in consideration of the above fact, a film in which a full-size print frame and another size print frame such as a panorama are mixed can be subjected to a printing process while switching printing conditions so as to correspond to each frame. It is an object of the present invention to obtain a photographic processing method that can efficiently print in a batch process.

[0007]

[0009] The invention according to claim 3 is the invention according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the stores to each co Ma printed storing designated size before printing process medium, from the storage medium It is characterized by detecting print marking size of each co Ma based on the information.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a photographic processing method for printing, on a photographic paper, a film in which a normal size print designation frame and a different size print designation frame having an aspect ratio different from the normal size are mixed. , film mask region, the photographic paper mask region, the feed amount and printing conditions including the enlarger magnification of the printing paper, and can be switched to the a for normal print size designated frames and for said another print size designated frame, each co Ma leave granted a mark for specifying the print size specified to advance the film to detect the mark at the time of baking, it is characterized in that switches the printing condition on the basis of the detection result.

[0011]

SUMMARY OF] According to the invention described in claim 1, the film mask area, paper mask area, the printing conditions including the feed amount and enlargers magnification of the photographic paper, and for the normal print size specified frame, and normal size Since it is possible to switch between frames for different size print designated frames having different aspect ratios , for example, the printing conditions can be switched for each frame that is sequentially positioned at the printing position. This eliminates the need for printing only a single size first, reloading the film, and printing the remaining sizes, thereby improving work efficiency. Also, the aspect ratio differs from the normal size of panorama etc.
It is not necessary to prepare a dedicated printing apparatus for a different size print designated frame that, the equipment also becomes simplified.

According to the invention described in claim 2, when the normal cyclic <br/>'s a normal size and aspect ratio, such as panoramic and different other sizes burn films mixed them to baking conditions can be switched For example, by simply changing the printing order of the film, the printing process can be performed separately and concentrated on a normal size and another size such as a panorama. In this case, loading is 1
Because it is only the number of times, without lowering the work efficiency,
In addition, the number of times of changing the printing conditions can be reduced.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, the print designation size of each frame is stored using a recording medium before the printing step, and the recording medium is set together with the film on the printing apparatus side. Therefore, by reading the information stored in the storage medium at the time of printing, the print designated size of each frame can be detected.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, a normal size (for example, full size) print designation frame or a normal size
It is detected in the previous process of the printing process whether the frame is a designated print of a different size, such as a panorama having a different size and aspect ratio . That is,
For example, a film by a so-called notch char puncher for subjecting the notches corresponding to each frame of the film (notch) was examined visually for automatic or O Pere data, denoted by the magnetic or optical marks such as a film And set it with the film. Thus, it is possible to determine whether the frame is a full-size print designated frame or another size print designated frame such as a panorama during the printing process.

Further, a mark or the like for discriminating whether the film is full size or another size such as panorama may be attached to the film magnetically or optically at the time of photographing with a camera, or may be recorded on a memory card or the like.

Therefore, the two positions of the full size position and the panorama size position are stored in advance, and the position may be determined to any one of the positions according to the signal from the memory card 22.

Finally, as shown in FIG. 7, assuming that the interval between the screens is α, the transport distance from the full size to the full size is M + α, and the transport distance between the other is the full size. The panorama size becomes 1.5M + α from the panorama size, the panorama size becomes 2M + α from the panorama size, and the full size becomes 1.5M + α from the panorama size.

The operation of this embodiment will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG. It should be noted that the full size or the panorama size is determined by the notch puncher 18, recorded on the memory card 22 and read by the reading device 26 of the printer 24.
It is assumed that it is loaded in

In step 500, the information of the image frame that will be at the next printing position is read from the memory card 22, and the process proceeds to step 502, where the type of image frame (full size or panorama size) is determined from the read information. Determine.

In step 502, if it is determined that the image is full size, the flow proceeds to step 504 to set (1) the flag F. If it is determined that the image is panorama size, the flow proceeds to step 506 to flag F is reset (0), and the flow advances to step 508.

In step 508, it is determined whether or not the printing condition currently set in the printer 24 matches the printing condition of the image frame to be printed next. That is, if they match, it is not necessary to change the printing conditions. Conversely, if they do not match, it is necessary to change the printing conditions.

If it is determined in step 508 that the printing conditions match, the flow shifts to step 510 to determine whether or not the flag F is set.
If an affirmative determination is made in step 510, the process proceeds to step 51.
Then, the process proceeds to step S2 to carry out the conveyance between the full sizes (full length M + α). If a negative determination is made in step 510, the flow shifts to step 514 to perform transport between panoramic sizes (panel size 2M + α).

In the next step 516, the negative film 1
2, the image frame to be printed is positioned at the printing position, and photometry is performed at step 518, and
At 20, the exposure is calculated. In the next step 522, a printing process is performed. In step 524, it is determined whether the one-roll negative film 12 has been completed. If the determination is negative, the process proceeds to step 500 to prepare for the next image frame printing. In step 524, when it is determined that the printing process of all the image frames has been completed (positive determination),
The process ends.

If it is determined in step 508 that the printing conditions do not match, the process proceeds from step 508 to step 526, where it is determined whether the flag F has been set or not, and the determined image frame is full. Select size or panorama size.

At step 526, it is determined that the image is full size (F =
If 1), the print mask 2 is set in step 528.
The screen 262 of No. 04 is unwound and set again in the mask area for full size. Next, in step 530, the partition plate 344 of the negative carrier 220 is retracted from the printing opening, and is set again in the printing opening for the full size. Next, the flow shifts to step 532, in which the lens 237 is driven and reset to the full-size (standard) magnification position, and the flow shifts to step 534.

If it is determined in step 526 that the size is a panorama size (F = 0), the screen 262 of the print mask 204 is wound up in step 536 and set again in the panorama size mask area. Next, at step 538, the partition plate 344 of the negative carrier 220 is arranged at the printing opening, and is set again at the printing opening for panorama size. Next, the flow shifts to step 540, in which the lens 237 is driven to reset the panorama size magnification position, and the flow shifts to step 534.

In step 534, the photographic paper is moved between different sizes (full size-panorama size or panorama size-
(Full size) (transport distance 1.5 M + α), and the process proceeds to step 516.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the printing condition can be changed according to the type (full size or panoramic size) of image frames which are sequentially conveyed and have different aspect ratios , and printing can be performed. The work of resetting the negative film 12 is unnecessary, and the printing process of one lot (one roll or one roll) of the negative film 12 can be performed by one batch process. Therefore, work efficiency is good and a printer dedicated to panorama is not required.

As for the correction amount for the exposure amount by photometry of the image frame positioned at the printing position, the color correction amount and the density correction amount are determined in advance by the test using the notcher puncher 18, and as shown in FIG. It is stored in the area of each frame of the memory card 22. That is, the memory card 22 stores the frame number of each frame, the color correction amount and the density correction amount as required, and records data for determining whether the frame is the full size or the panorama size. In this case, since there are two types to be discriminated, data is omitted in the case of the full size.

The information in the memory card 22 is shown in FIG.
As shown in (B), the printing conditions (print mask position, negative mask position, lens position, and photographic paper feed amount) for each frame may be stored.

In this embodiment, the type of the image frame of the negative film 12 is recorded on the memory card 22 and the type of the image frame is discriminated from the information of the memory card 22 by the printer 24, as shown in FIG. As shown, an optical mark (barcode 30 or exposure mark 32) or the like is attached to the base portion of the negative film 12, and this mark is detected.
The above processing may be performed. As shown in FIG. 11, an edge portion of an image frame may be detected based on the density distribution measured by the photodetector 254, and whether the image portion is full size or panoramic size may be determined based on the position of the edge portion.
