Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic image forming method, and more particularly to a silver halide color photographic image forming method excellent in hue reproducibility.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, the image quality of silver halide multilayer color photographic light-sensitive materials has been remarkably improved. In other words, with recent advances in color photographic light-sensitive materials, sharpness and graininess have become extremely high, and users are generally dissatisfied with color prints and slide photographs of a service version size. There is no.

However, in terms of color reproducibility among the four elements of image quality, the color purity has been improved, and vivid, and in some cases, exaggerated reproduction has become possible. Regarding the fidelity of hue, which was said to be difficult to reproduce, the situation has not changed much even now. For example, purple-based colors such as purple and red-purple that have a large reflectance in the so-called near-infrared, or green-based colors such as blue-green and yellow-green that reflect light with a wavelength longer than 600 nm are completely different from the real thing. It is reproduced in the color of, and the user may be disappointed.

The major factors relating to color reproducibility are the spectral sensitivity distribution of the color light-sensitive material and the inter-image effect (hereinafter abbreviated as IIE). The improvement of color reproducibility by IIE is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 58-7987. That is, in a silver halide multilayer color photographic light-sensitive material, a development inhibitor released from a compound (so-called DIR compound) which reacts with an oxidant of a developing agent to form a development inhibitor or a precursor thereof imagewise is By suppressing development of the color-sensitive layer, IIE occurs,
It is known to produce an effect of improving color reproducibility.

By the way, this technique is excellent in color reproducibility,
It mainly contributes to the improvement of color purity. This DIR can have high color purity if its directionality is not sufficiently controlled, but it also has the drawback of changing the hue.

On the other hand, regarding the spectral sensitivity distribution of a photographic light-sensitive material, a blue-sensitive and red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer (hereinafter abbreviated as a blue-sensitive layer, a red-sensitive layer, etc.) using a filter layer in JP-B-49-6207. The technique of reducing the variation of color reproducibility due to the difference of the light source at the time of photographing is disclosed by bringing both the spectral sensitivity distributions of (1) and (2) to those of the green-sensitive layer.

However, this is not only a means for improving the color having poor hue reproducibility described above, but also the sensitivity is remarkably reduced.
Although the change in reproducibility due to the change in color temperature is small, the overlap of the spectral sensitivity distribution between each color-sensitive layer is large, resulting in a narrow color reproduction range, and as a result, highly saturated colors are not reproduced, resulting in dull colors. There was a drawback that

Further, the shortening of the wavelength of the red-sensitive layer brings about a decrease in saturation, and in particular brings about a defect in skin color reproducibility, which is important in color reproduction of color photographs. That is, there is a drawback that the healthy redness peculiar to the skin color is lost, and the color reproduction becomes lifeless.

Further, a technique defining the spectral sensitivity and IIE is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 160449/1987. This technology is IIE
Is defined for each color-sensitive layer.

Further, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 62-160448 discloses a technique in which a cyan photosensitive layer is provided and IIE is applied to a red sensitive layer so that the spectral sensitivity of the human eye is simulated. Specifically, I
In order to express IE, an IIE color-forming layer (cyan photosensitive layer) is required in addition to the original blue-sensitive layer, green-sensitive layer and red-sensitive layer,
The effect is not sufficient because it has the drawbacks of increasing the amount of silver and increasing the production cost.

The color reproducibility cannot be said to be sufficient in any of the above techniques, and an image forming technique having good color reproducibility has been desired.

[0012]

[0114]

[Table 7] Both the color reversal paper and the film A, which do not satisfy the constitutional requirements of the present invention, are not preferable in color reproducibility in both yellow and flesh color. Even if only one of the photographic color light-sensitive material and the print color light-sensitive material, such as prints B and C, contained the yellow coupler according to the present invention, preferable color reproducibility was not obtained. On the other hand, prints D to H satisfying the constitutional requirements of the present invention had a healthy pinkish skin color and good yellow reproducibility.

According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a print having excellent color reproducibility, especially skin color reproducibility and yellow color reproducibility.
