Rapid processing of silver bromoiodide color negative films and digital image correction to provide display images having desired aim color and tone scale reproduction

A method for providing a color display image comprising:

• A) developing an imagewise exposed color silver bromoiodide negative working film having at least two color records, with a color developer solution having a pH of from about 9 to about 12, and comprising:
• a color developing agent at from about 0.01 to about 0.1 mol/l, and
• bromide ion at from 0 to about 0.2 mol/l, said developing being carried out for up to about 90 seconds at a temperature at or above about 40.degree. C.,
• B) scanning said developed film to form density representative signals for said at least two color records, and
• C) digitally manipulating said density representative signals formed in step B to correct either or both interimage interactions and gamma mismatches among said at least two color records to produce a digital record providing a display image having desired aim color and tone scale reproduction.
