Abstract: During the last few years, the public has shown a greatly increased interest in color photography. A few years ago, the introduction of a direct method of making color transparencies made the practice of color photography very much easier than it had been, and at the present time a very large number of photographs are taken in color. Approximately three-quarters of the home motion pictures are made in color, and more than twenty million still pictures are being taken in color this year. I think that if I were to ask the average man in the street, however: “What is the status of color photography?” he would say : “Oh, you can make photographs in color, but we have not yet got real color photography.” And if I cross-examined him as to his meaning, I should find that what he was thinking about was the production of prints in color; that he felt that to achieve real “color photography,” it should be possible to load a camera with a film and then after the film was developed, to obtain from it a color print, just as a black-and-white print is obtained from an ordinary film exposure.
