Effects of Mechanical and Chemical
Variations
Figures 4 through 13 illustrate some of the major
photographic effects of mechanical and chemical variations
on KODAK VISION2 Color Negative Control Strips
exposed on 5217 Film compared to the former VISION
Control Strips exposed on 5274 Film. Each plot shows the
effect of a change in a process variable (horizontal axis), on
the dye density of the processed film (vertical axis). These
density plots are deviated against the standard level for each
variable (e.g. standard level for the variable is represented by
zero density).
The magnitude of the changes shown in these plots should
not be considered to be process control limits. Also, the data
presented are qualitative, not quantitative. The plots were
derived from experiments using small laboratory machines
in which all constituents were held constant except the
variable being studied. Hence, the figures should be used
only as trend charts and guides. If two or more process
variable are changed, the resulting photographic effect
illustrated may not be additive. Interactions can occur that
produce effects other than those predicted by addition. The
plots in this publication are representative only; they do not
contain all possible solution problems. Most of the important
photographic effects take place in the developer.
