Color negative film for producing images of reduced granularity when viewed following electronic conversion

摘要

A color negative silver halide photographic element is disclosed that is capable of producing images that, when converted to electronic form and then converted to a viewable form, exhibit reduced granularity. The photographic elements contain blue, green and red recording layer units capable of forming spectrally differentiated dye images. The layer units are substantially free of masking coupler, each exhibit a dye image gamma of less than 1.5 and an exposure latitude of at least 2.7 log E. Greater than 50 mole percent of development inhibitor compound in at least one of the layer units exhibits a diffusion factor of less than 0.4.
