Digital Photofinishing System Including Digital Image Processing Of Alternative Capture Color Photographic Media

View page
US Patent:
6369901, Apr 9, 2002
Filed:
Jul 28, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/627998
Inventors:
John D. Buhr - Webster NY
Frank R. Brockler - Macedon NY
Allan F. Sowinski - Rochester NY
Assignee:
Eastman Kodak Company - Rochester NY
International Classification:
G06K 1500
US Classification:
358 11, 358 19
Abstract:
A method of digital photofinishing including the steps of: producing a digital color image in printing densities of a color image captured on alternative capture photographic media; first mapping the printing densities of the alternative capture photographic media to the printing densities that would have been obtained for reference color photographic media; processing the mapped digital color image with a scene balance algorithm to produce a processed digital color image; second mapping the processed digital color image through a hard copy media characteristic curve to produce a mapped digital color image mapped to print densities of the hard copy media; sharpening the mapped digital color image with a sharpening algorithm optimized to avoid unacceptable artifacts; and digitally printing the sharpened digital color image onto hard copy media.

Color Negative Film Element And Process For Developing

View page
US Patent:
6686136, Feb 3, 2004
Filed:
Jun 25, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/104675
Inventors:
Allan F. Sowinski - Rochester NY
Richard P. Szajewski - Rochester NY
Lois A. Buitano - Rochester NY
Frank R. Brockler - Macedon NY
John D. Buhr - Webster NY
Assignee:
Eastman Kodak Company - Rochester NY
International Classification:
G03C 146
US Classification:
430505, 430503, 430506
Abstract:
A color negative photographic element especially suited for preloading in a one-time-use camera is disclosed. The element is capable of producing images that, when developed, converted to electronic form, and then converted to a viewable form, exhibit excellent color, reduced granularity, and improved sharpness. The photographic elements contain blue, green, and red recording layer units capable of forming spectrally differentiated dye images. The layer units are substantially free of colored masking coupler, and each exhibits a dye image gamma of less than 1. 5. The element exhibits an exposure latitude of at least 2. 7 log E. The gamma ratios of the blue, green, and red recording layer units are between 0. 80 and 1. 2. Chemical processing of the element is also disclosed.

Richard P. Szajewski - Rochester NY
Lois A. Buitano - Rochester NY
John D. Buhr - Webster NY
Frank R. Brockler - Macedon NY
Assignee:
Eastman Kodak Company - Rochester NY
International Classification:
G03B 1702
US Classification:
396 6
Abstract:
A one-time-use camera preloaded with a color negative silver halide photographic element is disclosed. The element is capable of producing images after imagewise exposure that, when developed, converted to electronic form, digitally corrected and then converted to a viewable form, exhibit excellent color, reduced granularity and improved sharpness. The photographic elements contain blue, green and red recording layer units capable of forming spectrally differentiated dye images. The layer units are substantially free of colored masking coupler, and each exhibit a dye image gamma of less than 1. 5. The element exhibits an exposure latitude of at least 2. 7 log E. The gamma ratios of the blue, green and red recording layer units are between 0. 80 and 1. 2.
