Abstract: Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. has made substantial improvements to its Super F Series, the motion-picture color negative films offering the highest sensitivity available, and in the process has developed the ETERNA Series for dramatically enhanced image quality. In 2004 Fuji Film introduced ETERNA500—the first offering in the ETERNA Series—a product offering the highest sensitivity of E.I.500. Fuji Film has subsequently expanded the series with the release of new films of sensitivities ranging from medium to high, including E.I.250, E.I.250D and E.I.400. The ETERNA Series has successfully achieved our development goal of providing motion-picture color negative films that offer not only high image quality for traditional analog filming but also significantly improved adaptability to telecine, film scanning and other digital processes for which there is growing demand. This innovation has been made possible through the implementation of three new technologies that have heretofore been unavailable in motion-picture color negative film. The first technology is called “Super Nano-Structured • Grain Technology,” which ensures high sensitivity by controlling the microstructure of the silver-halide grain down to the nanoscale. The second technology is “Super-Efficient DIR-Coupler Technology,” which provides dramatically improved sharpness and color reproducibility while reducing the orange mask density. The third technology is “Super-Efficient Coupler Technology,” which enhances sharpness by improving the color-formation efficiency of couplers, thereby reducing the thickness of the photosensitive layer.
