JOURNAL FREE ACCESSNew dye diffusion transfer color thermographic materials, with improved light stability, have been marketed by Fuji Photo Film Co. since October 2000. The stability of these materials has been improved through the introduction of newly developed heterocyclic azo magenta and cyan dyes and a new stabilizer. At the same time, color reproduction has been improved further through the optimization of dye absorption profile. As a result, both the image quality and the light stability have reached the level of conventional color photographic papers for the first time in digital dry printing domain.View full abstractDownload PDF (9296K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn 2000, We have consecutively launched new IS0800 and 1600 color negative films with 135size, and new IS0800 film with APS format for the first time in the world. Adding to their featured high sensitivities, they have realized vivid and faithful color reproduction and superb image quality by utilizing Fuji's technologies such as the proprietary fourth color layer technology, fine-Σ technology and novel DIR coupler technology.View full abstractDownload PDF (11041K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn 2000, Konica announced three new color negative films: a 135-size ISO 800, an APS ISO 800 and a 135-size ISO 400. In Japan, these films were named New Centuria 800 Zoom Super, Centuria APS 800 Zoom Super and New Centuria 400. Development began with four major objectives: unsurpassed actual film speed, superior photographic quality stability (long lasting high speed and high image quality), expanded mixed lighting adaptability, and enhanced environmental protection. All four objectives were met, thanks to four outstanding developments: Multi-Coated Crystal (MCC) technology, Ultra-Consistent Crystal (UCC) technology, Existing Light Spectra (ELS) technology, and an environmentally-keyed design. With this success, New Centuria 800 Zoom Super film joins the entire Centuria series in promoting the Konica concept of picture-taking anytime, anywhere, by anyone.View full abstractDownload PDF (7476K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn February 2001, a new high-speed color reversal film was introduced into the Japanese market. Based on an analysis of the Japanese domestic reversal film market, the design concept of this film was established as an easy-to-use and reliable film for amateur users in nature photography and in casual picture taking. To realize this design concept, special attention was paid to photographic speed and to the stability of color balance because these would have a particular effect on the easy-to-use of amateur users. This reversal film has not only high speed and stable color balance, but also natural color reproduction and crisp gradation in the highlight region. A new silver halide technology, named Precisely Divided Function (PDF) crystal technology, and new yellow coupler technology were developed to achieve these features.View full abstractDownload PDF (8874K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSDigitalization has been progressed on Minilab systems in recent years. The advantages of digital Minilab are not only printing from negatives alone, they can also print from a various input sources including reversal films and DSC, with greatly improved quality through computation of digital image processing and a wide variety of processing. However, the computation cost for image processing is extremely high, and software processing does not ensure productivity. To solve this problem, we have succeeded in realizing the algorithm with hardware. The present report describes this method.View full abstractDownload PDF (805K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSFuji Film incorporates, in its newly-introduced Fuji Frontier Minilabs, a new and innovative chemical system. One of the advanced features of the system includes one-touch replenishment of chemical supplies that is virtually foolproof. To eliminate nearly all possibilities for error by automatically mixing the chemicals, the Frontier combines the chemical cartridges from several processes into one unique package. This also allows the chemicals to never come in contact with the operator's hands.
To achieve these benefits, several new technologies are incorporated into the system. These features include a single-part liquid developer concentrate, a thin, molded non-rigid HDPE container, built-in bottle opener, as well as a high-accuracy replenishment control system.View full abstractDownload PDF (8854K)
