Sept., 1938] NEW MOTION PICTURE APPARATUS 313 per unit of film developed was the same for Ultra-Speed panchromatic film as it was for Superpan negative (Fig. 8). Experience gained in processing typical motion picture negative films can be freely applied to the development of UltraSpeed panchromatic film. No advantage is gained with the Ultra-Speed film by the use of fine-grain developers of the sort that reduce the speed of the film. Greater efficiency and TRAY DEVELOPED AT 6S'F. IN AGFA 17 ULTRASPEED PANCHROMATIC TRAY DEVELOPED AT 6S*F. IN SEASE NO.3 ULTDASPEED PANCHROMATIC ULTBA-SPEED PANCHROMATIC FIG. 9. Characteristic curves of Ultra-Speed panchromatic film developed in various solutions used for miniature camera photography on motion picture negative film. better photographic quality is assured by employing a film such as Supreme negative,3 which is already slower than Ultra-Speed panchromatic film (but twice as fast as Superpan negative) and capable of exceptionally fine-grain results in motion picture negative developers of the types that bring out the full speed of the film. The sensitometric characteristics of Ultra-Speed panchromatic film developed in a number of developer solutions used with miniature camera exposures on motion picture negative film are shown in Fig. 9, and the time-gamma informa
