A reversal photographic element, preferably a color reversal element, is provided with development inhibitors of a defined class, and an absorber dye. The combination improves acutance. The element has a light sensitive layer containing latent image forming silver halide grains, and an inhibitor containing compound in the light sensitive layer or a non-imaging record associated with the light sensitve layer, the compound having the structural formula CAR-(TIME)n-INH wherein: CAR is a carrier moiety from which -(TIME)n-INH is released during color development; TIME is a timing group; INH is comprised of a development inhibitor moiety selected from the group defined in the specification, the INH having an inhibitor strength greater than 1. The element is further provided with a dye which absorbs light to which the light sensitive layer is sensitive. Elements of the present invention are preferably processed in a standard reversal process.
