Abstract
Increasing the spectral sensitization in the red region of an experimental coating of KODAK PANATOMIC-X AERECON II Film while suppressing the green region resulted in a film with greater atmospheric penetration, more effective signal/noise ratio, higher recorded target contrasts, and smaller filter factors, with no perceived or measurable image quality losses. Filters having higher excitation purity (saturation) can be used while maintaining the same exposure time.
