Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a color photographic light-sensitive material, which can change the gradation depending on the amount of exposure to improve the print finish under various photographing conditions, and particularly to improve the light source suitability when the light source is a fluorescent lamp. The present invention relates to an improved color photographic light-sensitive material.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Many efforts have been made to improve the color reproducibility of color photographic light-sensitive materials. Taking a color negative film as an example, the invention of a colored coupler which eliminates unnecessary absorption of a coupler coloring dye. By adding a coupler, which is disclosed in JP-A No. 50-2537, in a para-phenylenediamine color developing solution, which reacts with an oxidation product of a developing agent to release a development inhibitor, the inter-layer inhibition effect is enhanced and the color saturation is increased. Have been achieved. However, the color reproducibility of current color photographic light-sensitive materials has serious drawbacks and complaints. One of them is that a fluorescent light turns green. Furthermore, one of the major drawbacks of current color photographic light-sensitive materials is
It is impossible to reproduce subtle colors such as crimson and vermilion, red and orange, and yellow and yellow-green. On the other hand, there are spectral sensitivity distributions of blue, green, and red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers for the purpose of faithful color reproducibility and for providing a photographic light-sensitive material whose color reproducibility does not change significantly under photographing with various light sources. A range limiting method is disclosed in US Pat. No. 3,672,898. The present inventor has studied various combinations of the above means,
It was not possible to obtain a light-sensitive material which is sufficiently satisfactory in both saturation and hue fidelity. The reason is considered to be as follows. (1) When the spectral sensitivity is set within the range disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,672,898, the color saturation decreases. (2) Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 50-2
When the DIR compound disclosed in 537 is used or when the color saturation is enhanced by strengthening the masking by the colored coupler, the overlapping portions of the spectral sensitivity distributions of the blue, green and red sensitive silver halide emulsion layers mutually suppress each other. Therefore, the spectral sensitivity distribution is distorted, and as a result, a hue shift occurs. As a solution to these problems, JP-A-62-1
No. 60448 was proposed. It has become possible to dramatically improve the color reproducibility of color light-sensitive materials by using such a light-sensitive material.
Compared to shooting under daylight, the tint changed slightly, and there were still unsatisfactory points. Then, JP-A-2-1736
No. 31 was proposed and attempts were made to improve the color reproducibility when shooting under fluorescent light, and great effects were obtained, but there is room for improvement in the quality of final prints taken under various shooting conditions.
I wasn't satisfied yet.

By the way, although many inventions have been made to improve color reproducibility as described above, in a normal color photographic light-sensitive material, the characteristic curves of B, G, and R layers are usually made almost linear. It is common sense that the gradation in the final print is constant and does not change significantly at any exposure amount. However, when actually shooting, it is necessary to shoot various scenes in various situations such as fine and cloudy days, vivid subjects and faint subjects. For example, under direct sunlight there is too much contrast between the shadow of half the face and the part where the sun is shining, the picture is too hard, and under cloudy weather, the contrast is weak overall, and there is a problem such as a sleepy picture, There is a need for a photosensitive material whose gradation can be changed according to the situation. Regarding the gradation changing system for the final print, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 33-6444 has a system in which the exposure wavelength is changed at the time of printing. However, the operation at the time of printing is difficult with the current mass print system, There is a problem that the will of
There has been a long-awaited need for a color photographic light-sensitive material that can change the gradation during shooting. Also, in terms of color reproducibility, in a photographic system, there is a large correlation between the color reproducibility and the gradation of the final print, and if the final print is made to have a high contrast, the saturation of the primary colors will increase, but the color of a pale intermediate color will increase. It causes problems such as not coming out. Therefore, a photosensitive material that can change the gradation with one photosensitive material according to various shooting situations and scenes has been desired.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a color photographic light-sensitive material which can change the gradation depending on the exposure amount. In addition, fine weather, cloudy weather,
An object of the present invention is to provide a color photographic light-sensitive material whose final print quality does not deteriorate even when used in the rain. Particularly, it is to provide a negative-type color photographic light-sensitive material which does not deteriorate the final print quality even when used under a fluorescent lamp.

(5) Determination of specific photographic sensitivity Using the results of processing and density measurement under the conditions shown in (1) to (4), the specific photographic sensitivity is determined by the following procedure. 0.15 for each minimum density of blue, green and red
The exposure doses corresponding to high densities are expressed in lux · second and are designated as H _B , H _G , and H _R , respectively. The larger value (lower sensitivity) of H _B and H _R is designated as H _S. The specific photographic sensitivity S is calculated according to the following formula.

[0016]

[Equation 1]

The specific photographic sensitivity S is 25 or more, preferably 50 or more.

Next, a method of _obtaining S _G560 and S _R560 will be described. For color photographic light-sensitive materials having a specific photographic sensitivity of S,
A light-sensitive material to be tested with an exposure amount of 2 × 1 / S lux.sec. With the same exposure time as when the specific photographic sensitivity was obtained by using a light source having the same relative spectral energy distribution as that used for obtaining the specific photographic sensitivity. Give a uniform exposure to. At this time, the test is carried out in a room at a temperature of 20 ± 5 ° C. and a relative humidity of 60 ± 10%, and the photosensitive material to be tested is left in this state for 1 hour or more before use. Within 1 hour after the uniform exposure, exposure is performed by changing the illuminance using monochromatic light of 560 nm. The exposure device uses the non-intermittent exposure / illuminance steel type, as in the case of measuring the specific photographic sensitivity, and the illuminance change is due to a light modulator such as an optical wedge. The exposure time is 1/10 seconds. The 560 nm monochromatic light referred to here means that the peak wavelength of the relative spectral energy is 560 ± 2 nm and the half width is 20 n.
Says a thing of m or less. In order to obtain this monochromatic light, a normal light source for exposure, for example, a tungsten lamp and a commercially available interference filter may be combined. After the monochromatic light exposure, the photosensitive material to be tested is kept at a temperature of 20 before development processing.
Keeping the condition of ± 5 ° C. and relative humidity of 60 ± 10%, the development process should be completed within 30 minutes or more and 6 hours after exposure.
The processing method is according to the method recommended by the film manufacturer. For the density measurement, each density is measured by the blue, green and red filters having the spectral characteristics shown in FIG. The detailed conditions of the measuring method conform to the ISO method. The photographic sensitivities S _G560 and S _R560 are H _G560 lux which is the exposure amount at a point having a minimum density (after uniform exposure is given) +0.6.
_-Calculate according to the following formula when sec and H _R560 lux-sec. S _G560 = _{−log 10} H _G560 S _R560 = _{−log 10} H _R560 The spectral sensitivity distribution of the present invention is disclosed in JP-A-2-173631 P-.
It is preferably obtained by appropriately combining and using the spectral sensitizing dyes described in Nos. 233 to P-261. According to the method described in JP-A-61-34541,
Centroid sensitivity wavelength (λ _G ) of the spectral sensitivity distribution of the green-sensitive layer, and at least one red-sensitive silver halide layer that develops cyan is 5
It is 5 when the centroid wavelength (λ _-R ) of the distribution of the magnitude of the stacking effect received from other layers in the range of 00 nm to 600 nm is obtained.
20 nm ≤ λ _G ≤ 580 nm, 500 nm ≤ λ _-R ≤ 56
It is preferably 0 nm and λ _G −λ _−R ≧ 5 nm, and more preferably λ _G −λ _−R ≧ 10 nm. Here, the centroid wavelength λ _-R of the wavelength distribution of the magnitude of the stacking effect that the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer receives from other layers in the range of 500 nm to 600 nm is obtained as follows. (1) First, using a red filter that transmits a specific wavelength or more or an interference filter that transmits only a specific wavelength so that the red-sensitive layer that develops cyan at a wavelength of 600 nm or more is exposed and other layers are not exposed. The red-sensitive layer that develops cyan is uniformly covered with an appropriate value by applying uniform exposure. (2) Then, when spectral exposure is applied, the multilayer effect of development suppression works from the blue-sensitive layer and the green-sensitive layer to give a reversal image. (3) From this inverted image, the spectral sensitivity distribution S _−R (λ) as the inverted photosensitive material is obtained. (4) Calculate the center-of-gravity wavelength (λ _-R ) of the stacking effect by the following formula.

[0019]

[Equation 2]

The center-of-gravity sensitivity wavelength λ _G here is given by the following equation.

[0021]

[Equation 3]

In order to achieve the S _G560 -S _R560 of the present invention, known techniques such as selection of an appropriate sensitizing dye and introduction of a filter layer using various dyes can be used. In the present invention, S _G560 −S _R560 is −0.2 ≦ S _G560 −S
_R560 must be <1.0. Preferably -0.2
≦ S _G560 −S _R560 ≦ 0.9, more preferably −
0.1 ≦ S _G560 −S _R560 ≦ 0.8.

Next, the inclination GA will be described. As described in the section of specific photographic sensitivity, a characteristic curve showing the relationship between the exposure amount and the color density is obtained, and the vertical and horizontal directions are set so that the interval of ΔlogE is 0.1 and the interval of color density is 0.1. Write the characteristic curve on the axis. GA from this characteristic curve as follows
Ask for. The characteristic curve (A) is shown in FIG. A curve (B) obtained by linearly differentiating the characteristic curve (A) of FIG.
Ask for. A curve (B) obtained by first-order differentiation from the exposure point (a) giving a density of +0.2 to the exposure point (b) at which logE increases by 2.5 in the characteristic curve (A) of FIG. Then, a straight line (C) is obtained from the curve (B) using the least squares method, and this straight line (C)
The slope of is GA. This GA represents the shape of the characteristic curve. For example, if the characteristic curve is a perfectly straight line, the first derivative curve shows a straight line horizontal to the exposure dose, and as a result G
A = 0. GA when the characteristic curve is convex downward
> 0, and if it has a convex shape, GA <0. FIG. 1 shows an example of GA≈0, and FIG. 2 shows an example of GA> 0. GA ≧ 0.05, which is a requirement of the present invention, means that the curve has a tendency to be convex downward when the entire characteristic curve is viewed, and when the degree is represented by GA, it is 0.0.
That is 5 or more. GA is 0.05 or more, preferably 0.08 or more, and particularly preferably 0.10 or more.

The following merits can be obtained by producing a light-sensitive material having a characteristic curve that is convex downward as a whole such that GA> 0.05. The gradation can be changed by the exposure amount. For example, in shooting conditions with low contrast, such as on a rainy day, by increasing the amount of exposure, the areas of the negative tone of the shooting negative that are hard are used to make the prints that are normally drowsy and firm and hard.
A crisp print with a crisp finish. On the other hand, under shooting conditions with high light contrast, such as on the coast or on a ski resort, the exposure amount is reduced to use a region with a soft gradation of the negative of the shooting, and normally half of the face light is white, The gradation of the print, such as the other half being crushed in black, is reduced to give a smooth finish. In ordinary prints such as light colors and intermediate colors, color changes occur because the total gradation is hard, but the soft gradation part is used to reduce the color change, and highlights are often removed to create a picture. be able to. GA <-0.05
Even with a photosensitive material having an upwardly convex characteristic curve, the gradation can be changed depending on the exposure amount, but the main gradation is hard and
In addition, the print lacks highlights, and the color reproducibility of intermediate colors is poor, which is not preferable.

The light-sensitive material of the present invention may have at least one silver halide emulsion layer of a blue-sensitive layer, a green-sensitive layer and a red-sensitive layer provided on a support. There is no particular limitation on the number and order of layers of the silver halide emulsion layer and the non-photosensitive layer. As a typical example, a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material having at least one light-sensitive layer composed of a plurality of silver halide emulsion layers having substantially the same color sensitivity but different sensitivities on a support. And the photosensitive layer is blue light, green light,
And a unit light-sensitive layer having color sensitivity to red light, and in a multilayer silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, the unit light-sensitive layers are generally arranged in order from the support side to the red-color-sensitive layer and green. The color sensitive layer and the blue color sensitive layer are installed in this order. However, the order of installation may be reversed depending on the purpose, or the order of installation may be such that different photosensitive layers are sandwiched between the same color-sensitive layers. A non-photosensitive layer such as various intermediate layers may be provided between the above-described silver halide photosensitive layers and as the uppermost layer and the lowermost layer. The intermediate layer includes JP-A Nos. 61-43748 and 59-113.

The plural silver halide emulsion layers constituting each unit light-sensitive layer preferably use a two-layer constitution of a high-sensitivity emulsion layer and a low-sensitivity emulsion layer as described in West German Patent No. 1,121,470 or British Patent No. 923,045. be able to. Usually, it is preferable that the layers are arranged so that the sensitivities are gradually lowered toward the support, and a non-photosensitive layer may be provided between each halogen emulsion layer.

It is also possible to arrange the layers in the order of blue-sensitive layer / GL / RL / GH / RH from the side farthest from the support, as described in the specification. Further, as described in JP-B-49-15495, the upper layer is a silver halide emulsion layer having the highest sensitivity, the middle layer is a silver halide emulsion layer having a lower sensitivity, and the lower layer is more sensitive than the middle layer. An example is an arrangement in which a silver halide emulsion layer having a low degree of sensitivity is arranged and three layers having different sensitivities are sequentially lowered toward the support. Even when it is composed of three layers having different sensitivities, as described in JP-A-59-202464, a medium-sensitivity emulsion from the side distant from the support in the same color-sensitive layer. The layers may be arranged in the order of high-speed emulsion layer / low-speed emulsion layer. In addition, they may be arranged in the order of high-speed emulsion layer / low-speed emulsion layer / medium-speed emulsion layer, or low-speed emulsion layer / medium-speed emulsion layer / high-speed emulsion layer.

When the reversal process is performed, black and white development is usually performed before color development. In this black-and-white developer, known black-and-white developing agents such as dihydroxybenzenes such as hydroquinone, 3-pyrazolidones such as 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone or aminophenols such as N-methyl-p-aminophenol are used alone. Alternatively, they can be used in combination. The pH of these color developing solution and black-and-white developing solution is generally 9-12. The replenishing amount of these developing solutions depends on the color photographic light-sensitive material to be processed, but is generally 3 liters or less per 1 square meter of the light-sensitive material, and is 500 ml or less by reducing the bromide ion concentration in the replenishing solution. You can also When the replenishment amount is reduced, it is preferable to prevent the liquid evaporation and air oxidation by reducing the contact area with the air in the processing tank. The contact area between the photographic processing liquid and air in the processing tank can be represented by the aperture ratio defined below. That is, aperture ratio = [contact area between treatment liquid and air (cm ² )] ÷ [volume of treatment liquid (cm ³ )] The above aperture ratio is preferably 0.1 or less, and more preferably 0.001 to 0.05.

The slit development processing method described in 63-216050 can be mentioned. Reducing the aperture ratio is not limited to both the color development and black and white development steps, but also the subsequent steps such as bleaching, bleach-fixing,
It is preferably applied in all steps such as fixing, washing with water, and stabilization. Further, the amount of replenishment can be reduced by using a means for suppressing the accumulation of bromide ions in the developing solution. The color development processing time is usually set to 2 to 5 minutes, but the processing time can be further shortened by setting the temperature and high pH and using the color developing agent at a high concentration.

The photographic emulsion layer after color development is usually bleached. The bleaching process may be performed at the same time as the fixing process (bleach-fixing process) or separately. Further, in order to speed up the processing, a processing method of bleach-fixing processing after bleaching processing may be used. Further, treatment with two continuous bleach-fixing baths, fixing treatment before the bleach-fixing treatment, or bleaching treatment after the bleach-fixing treatment can be optionally carried out. As the bleaching agent, compounds of polyvalent metals such as iron (III), peracids, quinones, nitro compounds and the like are used. Typical bleaching agents include organic complex salts of iron (III), such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid, methyliminodiacetic acid, 1,3-diaminopropanetetraacetic acid and glycol etherdiaminetetraacetic acid. Polycarboxylic acids or complex salts of citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid and the like can be used. Of these, aminopolycarboxylic acid iron (III) complex salts such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid iron (III) complex salt and 1,3-diaminopropanetetraacetic acid iron (III) complex salt are preferable from the viewpoint of rapid treatment and prevention of environmental pollution. .. Further, the aminopolycarboxylic acid iron (III) complex salt is particularly useful in both the bleaching solution and the bleach-fixing solution. The pH of a bleaching solution or a bleach-fixing solution using these aminopolycarboxylic acid iron (III) complex salts is usually 4.0 to 8, but a lower pH can be used for speeding up the processing.

If necessary, a bleaching accelerator can be used in the bleaching solution, the bleach-fixing solution and their pre-bath.

In the preferable temperature range, the desilvering rate is improved and the stain generation after the processing is effectively prevented. In the desilvering process, it is preferable that the stirring is strengthened as much as possible.
As a specific method for strengthening stirring, a method of impinging a jet of a processing solution on the emulsion surface of the light-sensitive material described in JP-A-62-183460, or stirring using a rotating means of JP-A-62-183461 is used. Method of improving the effect, further moving the photosensitive material while the emulsion surface is in contact with the wiper blade provided in the solution to make the emulsion surface turbulent to further improve the stirring effect, circulation of the entire processing solution There is a method of increasing the flow rate. Such a stirring improving means is effective for any of the bleaching solution, the bleach-fixing solution and the fixing solution. It is considered that the improvement of the stirring speeds up the supply of the bleaching agent and the fixing agent into the emulsion film and, as a result, increases the desilvering rate. Further, the above-mentioned stirring improving means is more effective when a bleaching accelerator is used, and it is possible to remarkably increase the accelerating effect and eliminate the fixing inhibiting effect of the bleaching accelerator. The automatic processor used for the light-sensitive material of the present invention is disclosed in JP-A-60-191257.

As described in No. 0-191257, such a conveying means can significantly reduce the carry-in of the treatment liquid from the front bath to the rear bath, and is highly effective in preventing the performance deterioration of the treatment liquid. Such effects are particularly effective in shortening the processing time in each step and reducing the amount of processing liquid replenishment.

The silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material of the present invention is generally subjected to washing and / or stabilizing steps after desilvering. The amount of rinsing water in the rinsing process depends on the characteristics of the photosensitive material (for example, depending on the materials used such as couplers), application, and further, the rinsing water temperature, the number of rinsing tanks (number of stages), replenishment system such as countercurrent, forward flow, and other various conditions. It can be set in a wide range.
Of these, the relationship between the number of washing tanks and the amount of water in the multi-stage countercurrent system is as follows.
nd Tele-vision Engineers Volume 64, P. 248 ~ 253 (19
May 55 issue), you can ask for it. According to the multi-stage counter-current method described in the above literature, the amount of washing water can be significantly reduced, but due to the increase in the residence time of water in the tank, bacteria propagate, and the suspended matter produced adheres to the photosensitive material, etc. Problems arise. In the processing of the color light-sensitive material of the present invention, as a solution to this problem, the method of reducing calcium and magnesium ions described in JP-A-62-288,838 can be used very effectively.

[Table 6]

As can be seen from Table 6, when the GA value is 0.05 or more, the suitability for a scene having different contrasts such as fine weather and cloudy weather becomes high. However, with regard to photographing under a mix light source with an artificial light source such as a fluorescent lamp, Never improves. On the contrary, when the contrast is adjusted, the green color of the fluorescent lamp is strong and it looks more unpleasant. On the other _hand , by _setting the value of S _G560 -S _R560 to 1.0 or less, excellent print quality can be obtained not only in scenes with different contrasts such as fine weather and cloudy weather, but also in shooting under artificial light sources such as fluorescent lamps. It turns out that Further, it was found that the fidelity of the color reproducibility of intermediate colors such as yellowish blue, light purple and pink was also significantly improved.
