Abstract
Increasing the spectral sensitization in the red region of KODAK PANATOMIC-X AERECON II Film 3412 (ESTAR Thin Base) while suppressing the green region results 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.
