Silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material containing cyan coupler and method for use thereof

A method for producing a photographic image which comprises developing an exposed silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material with a developer comprising an aromatic primary amine-developing agent, wherein said silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material has at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer provided on a support and said photographic material contains at least one non-diffusible, oil-soluble cyan dye-forming coupler represented by formula (I) ##STR8## wherein R represents a substituted or unsubstituted branched alkyl group or an alkyl group substituted with other than an alkyl group, said R containing 6 or more carbon atoms and said R not being substituted with (1) a carboxyl group which is not substituted, (2) a sulfo group which is not substituted, (3) a carboxyl group which is substituted with a metal atom, (4) a carboxyl group which is substituted with an --NH.sub.4 group, (5) a sulfo group which is substituted with a metal atom of (6) a sulfo group which is substituted with an --NH.sub.4 group;

• X represents a hydrogen atom or a non-photographically-useful group which can be released therefrom upon coupling with an oxidized form of an aromatic primary amine developing agent;
• R' represents a group which can be substituted at a phenyl nucleus other than a group which can be represented by OR;
• and n is an integer of from 0 to 4, said coupler being incorporated into the emulsion by an oil-in-water dispersion process.
