Types of Color Films
B. Reversal Film
• Emulsion Speed
• Exposure and development latitude
• Contrast range or grade
• Physical charateristics
Emulsion Speed
• Chloride paper
• Bromide papers
• ---Has fast speed and suited for protection
printing or enlarging
Emulsion Speed
• Chloro-bromide papers
• ---multi-speed and could be used in both
contact printing and enlarging.
Emulsion Speed
• Exposure Latitude
• ---Photographic papers do not have a wide
exposure latitude so exposure must be
critical at all times.
Exposure and Development Latitude
• Development Latitude
• Surfaces of photographic
papers---glossy/smooth; semi-matte/silk;
matte/rough surface.
• Base weight or thickness---light weight;
single weight; medium weight; double
weight
