- Abstract
- Release print laboratories require a method of quickly making photographic duplicate negatives to replace damaged original negative sections. The paper shows the development of a method of making dupes which have the same optimal print densities as the original negatives. A selection of film stocks is first made using the ratio of transmission between black area and fogs as a “yardstick.” Processing data are shown in a family of curves, and the “best operating point” for the entire process has been determined. Fog considerations have been carried throughout the process. An outline of commercial practice is given together with the necessary routine tests.
