Silver halide color reversal lightsensitive material

Abstract

A silver halide color reversal lightsensitive material comprising a transparent support and, superimposed thereon, a blue-sensitive emulsion layer unit, a green-sensitive emulsion layer unit and a red-sensitive emulsion layer unit, each of these units comprising at least two emulsion sub-layers having the same color sensitivity but different speeds from each other, wherein the material contains a yellow dye in an amount of 0.15 to 1.0 g/m2 and satisfies the relationship: 0.9≦γ′/γ≦1.25 wherein γ and γ′ each represent a point-gamma value of a portion of the material giving a magenta density of 1.0 when the material was subjected to a development processing comprising an image-wise exposure step, a black and white development step, a reversal processing step, a color development step and a desilvering step thereby forming color reversal images, provided that γ is the point-gamma value attained when a period of the black and white development step was set to the standard period, and γ′ is the point-gamma value attained when the period of the black and white development step was prolonged to attain a higher speed of 0.5 log E.
