A New Reversal Print Material for a Color Production System

Deane S. Thomas, Herbert L. Rees, Robert C. Lovick

A new print film, Type 7387, has been introduced to replace Eastman Reversal Color Print Film, Type 5269, for making prints from 16mm reversal film. The film has improved color reproduction, lower graininess, better sound reproduction characteristics, and an increase in printing speed by a factor of about two. A new process, designated as RCP-2, is required for the new film. Machines now operating on Process RCP-1 (for Type 5269) can be converted to the new process. Improved soundtrack application can be achieved with equipment modifications.
