Abstract:
An apparatus for processing silver halide color photographic light-sensitive materials, which processes a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material A for photographing containing a high silver bromide emulsion having a silver bromide content of from 50 to 100 mol % and a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material B for photographing containing a high silver chloride emulsion having a silver chloride content of from 50 to 100 mol % with a common color developer, said apparatus comprisinga developing tank for storing a developer, a thick replenisher feeding means for feeding a thick replenisher directly to said developing tank, a diluting water feeding means for feeding a diluting water for diluting said thick replenisher to said developing tank, a processed amount setting means for setting respective processed amounts of said light-sensitive materials, and a diluting water feeding controlling means for changing the feeding amount of said diluting water to change both the concentration of said developer replenisher and the replenishing amount of said developer replenisher per a unit processing area according to respective processed amounts of said light-sensitive materials.
