The Gevacolor Positive Film Type 953

Louis A. Meeussen

A color print film stock, T.953, has been designed to improve definition and color saturation. Compared with earlier films, the new film has an inverted structure: bottom layer—blue sensitive, yellow coupler, silver bromide; middle layer—red sensitive, cyan coupler, silver chloride; and top layer—green sensitive, magenta coupler, silver chloride. Besides using magenta and cyan dyes which disappear in the processing, the film has a removable carbon black antihalation layer. Spectral sensitivity curves, processing formulas and procedure are presented.
