New Technology on Fujicolor Negative Film
Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. has recently completed development of a new and completely redesigned highspeed F-500 color negative motion picture film stock (EI 500T) which offers the cinematographer dramatic improvements in image quality. — This next-generation film stock incorporates two major Fuji proprietary technological developments which results in significantly improved granularity, sharpness and color reproduction. — The first of these developments utilized by the new emulsion is Fuji's Super Uniform Fine Grain (SUFG) technology. This proprietary advancement is particularly effective in increasing fine-grain sensitivity, which has previously been unachievable in high-speed photosensitive materials. The SUFG technologiy is incorporated into all layers of the new F-500 film and is responsible for its remarkably fine grain. — The second development utilized is Fuji's DIR technology. This proprietary improvement is also a critical factor in the new emulsion's performance equation and brings vast improvements in sharpness and color reproduction over traditional high-speed emulsions through more precisely controlled release of high-diffusional development inhibitor.
