Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic material which is free from the degradation of the balance of gradation, the deteriorations of color reproducibility and sharpness, and the lowering of the capability of magnetic recording, which become problems at rapid processing, and relates to a method for forming an image. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Every endeavor has been made to shorten the development processing time of a color photographic material. The development processing time of a color negative light-sensitive material has been extremely reduced by the introduction of C-41 processing by Eastman Kodak in 1972. The wet processing time exclusive of drying process has been shortened to 17 minutes and 20 seconds, and in recent years, the processing time has been speeded up to 8 minutes and 15 seconds by the introduction of rapid processing CN-16FA of Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. for a minilab market. On the other hand, in the processing method of a light-sensitive material, in general, color development, desilvering, washing and stabilization steps are carried out. Taking development processing of a color negative film as an example, the reduction of the time of these development processing steps has been conducted mainly by the shortening of desilvering step, therefore, the speedup of the color development processing time is desired. The shortening of the color developing time is feasible by raising the processing temperature of a color development processing solution and the concentration of a developing agent. However, it has been found that raising only the activity of the color development by these methods causes various problems. For example, the development of a red-sensitive layer of a color negative film, which is generally the lowermost light-sensitive emulsion layer, is relatively delayed, as a result, the balance of gradation is lost, and the deteriorations of color reproducibility and sharpness due to the lowering of an interlayer effect occur. The present inventors further investigated and have found that a DIR compound having a high diffusibility is very effective for solving the above problems concerning the rapid processing. With respect to the technique of using a high diffusible DIR compound, various techniques have been disclosed in the past, for example, in JP-A-59-129849 (the term "JP-A" as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese patent application") and JP-B-5-49090 (the term "JP-B" as used herein means an "examined Japanese patent publication"). However, there is no suggestion of the deteriorations of color reproducibility and sharpness at the time of rapid processing in these specifications, and the effect of the present invention cannot be foreseen from these patents. Further, there are disclosed in JP-B-5-84891 and JP-A-62-170955 the methods of improving graininess by processing a photographic material containing a DIR compound at 120 seconds or less color developing time. Although graininess is certainly improved according to these methods, the above problems, that is, the degradation of the balance of gradation, the deterioration of color reproducibility and the deterioration of sharpness are not improved. In the meanwhile, a roll film having a magnetic layer containing grains of a magnetic substance on the back side of the film which is capable of magnetic recording and a camera for photographing having a magnetic head are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,947,196 and WO 90/04254. According to these improved techniques, printing quality can be improved and printing works and office works of labs can be expedited by magnetically inputting/outputting various informations to and from magnetic layers of films, such as identification information of the kind and manufacturer of a photographic material, information concerning the conditions at the time of photographing, information about customers, and information about the printing conditions and the number of sheets of reprinting. However, it has been found that when such a photographic material having a magnetic recording layer is processed with a processing solution of a developing agent of high concentration as described above, the capability of a magnetic recording layer is extremely deteriorated and satisfactory information cannot be offered. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a silver halide color photographic material which is free from the degradation of the balance of gradation, the deteriorations of color reproducibility and sharpness, and the lowering of the capability of magnetic recording when rapid development processing is carried out, and a further object is to provide a combination of a photographic material which is suitable for rapid processing with a development processing method.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention will be described in detail below. The photographic material of the present invention can exhibit excellent capabilities in the interlayer effect and sharpness even in rapid processing by containing a DIR compound which releases a diffusible development inhibitor. This is because the interlayer effect, which is extremely reduced in rapid color development processing, can be improved by further increasing the diffusibility of a development inhibitor. The development inhibitor having 0.3 or more of a diffusion parameter for use in the present invention is described in detail below. The evaluation of the diffusion parameter of the development inhibitor for use in the present invention is conducted according to the method disclosed in JP-A-59-129849. Representative development inhibitors and the values of the diffusion parameter measured using this method are shown in the following Tables 1 and 2.

The above described substituents may further have substituents and the above described substituents can be cited as examples of these substituents. In the above formulae, R 12 represents an aryl group (having from 6 to 10 carbon atoms, e.g., phenyl, naphthyl, 4-methoxyphenyl, 3-methoxycarbonylphenyl), a heterocyclic group (having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a 3- to 12-membered, preferably a 5- or 6-membered, monocyclic or condensed ring containing at least 1 or more of a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom and a sulfur atom as a hetero atom, e.g., 2-pyridyl, 1-pyrrolyl, morpholino, indolyl), an alkyl group (a straight chain, branched, cyclic, saturated or unsaturated group having from 1 to 20, preferably from 1 to 10, carbon atoms, e.g., methyl, ethyl, butoxycarbonylmethyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, benzyl); V represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom; f represents 1, 2, 3 or 4; g represents 0 or 1; and h represents 1 or 2. The diffusion parameter of a development inhibitor even having a diffusion parameter of 0.3 or less evaluated by the above-described method can be set at 0.3 or more by providing a timing group. The following structure can be cited as a specific example of such a case. The coupler having such a splittable group is called a so-called timing type DIR coupler. This timing type coupler certainly has a sufficient diffusibility in ordinary processing of a color negative film, but as the inhibitor is too strong in rapid processing, it strongly inhibits development of the layer in which it is contained and, in particular, when used in a red-sensitive layer, it causes the development delay of the red-sensitive layer. Therefore, in the present invention the diffusion parameter of the development inhibitor per se is necessary to be 0.3 or more. The preferred structure of the development inhibitor for use in the present invention is not limited to the above structure. Further, if a sulfur atom which is strongly adsorbed onto silver or silver halide is contained in the inhibiting part of an inhibitor, the diffusibility is sometimes extremely inhibited, in particular, in rapid processing. Accordingly, those having the structure which does not contain a sulfur atom in the molecule are particularly preferred. That is, the structure represented by the above formula (DI-1), (DI-2), (DI-3), (DI-4), (DI-5) or (DI-6) is particularly preferred. The diffusion parameter of the development inhibitor of the present invention is necessary to be 0.3 or more and the diffusion parameter of 0.4 or more is further preferred. Too large a diffusibility also deteriorates the function as an inhibitor, accordingly, diffusion parameter of 0.95 or less is preferred. A DIR compound according to the present invention is explained below. A DIR compound according to the present invention is represented by the following formula (I), (II) or (III): A-DI A-(TIME) a -DI A-(TIME) i -RED-DI wherein A represents a coupler residue releasing DI, (TIME) a -DI, or RED-DI upon coupling reaction with the oxidation product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent; TIME represents a timing group cleaving DI after splitting up from A by coupling reaction; RED represents a group cleaving DI upon reaction with the oxidation product of a developing agent after splitting up from A; DI represents the above-described development inhibitor; a represents 1 or 2; and i represents 0 or 1; and when a represents 2, two TIME's may be the same or different. A coupler residue represented by A is described below. When A represents a yellow color image-forming coupler residue, examples of the coupler residues include, for example, pivaloylacetanilide type, benzoylacetanilide type, malondiester type, malondiamide type, dibenzoylmethane type, benzothiazolylacetamide type, malonestermonoamide type, benzoxazolylacetamide type, benzimidazolylacetamide type and cycloalkanoylacetamide type coupler residues. Further, the coupler residues may be the coupler residues disclosed in U.S. Patents 5,021,332, 5,021,330 and EP-A-421221. When A represents a magenta color image-forming coupler residue, examples of the coupler residues include, for example, 5-pyrazolone type, pyrazolobenzimidazole type, pyrazolotriazole type, pyrazoloimidazole type and cyanoacetophenone type coupler residues. When A represents a cyan color image-forming coupler residue, examples of the coupler residues include, for example, phenol type and naphthol type coupler residues. Further, the coupler residues may be the coupler residues disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,746,602 and EP-A-249453. Moreover, A may be a coupler residue which substantially does not form a color image. As such type coupler residues, for example, indanone type and acetophenone type coupler residues and the dissolution type coupler residues disclosed in EP-A-443530 and EP-A-444501 can be cited. When A represents a coupler residue in formula (I), preferred examples of A are coupler residues represented by the following formula (Cp-1), (Cp-2), (Cp-3), (Cp-4), (Cp-5), (Cp-6), (Cp-7), (Cp-8), (Cp-9) or (Cp-10). These coupler residues have high coupling speed and preferred. In the above formulae, a free bond derived from the coupling position represents the bonding position of a coupling-splittable group. In the above formulae, when R 51 , R 52 , R 53 , R 54 , R 55 , R 56 , R 57 , R 58 , R 59 , R 60 , R 61 , R 62 or R 63 contains a diffusion resistive group, the diffusion resistive group is selected so that the total carbon atom number is from 8 to 40 and preferably from 10 to 30, and in other cases the total carbon atom number is preferably 15 or less. When the coupler is bis type, telomer type or polymer type, either of the above substituents represents a divalent group and links a repeating unit and the like.

Specific examples of development processing I and development processing II are described below. When these two processes are conducted, the gradations of the uppermost light-sensitive layer (in general, a blue-sensitive layer) of the photographic material are contrived to almost coincide with.

In addition, the bath having the bleaching ability applicable to the present invention can contain a rehalogenating agent such as bromide (e.g., potassium bromide, sodium bromide, ammonium bromide), chloride (e.g., potassium chloride, sodium chloride, ammonium chloride) or iodide (e.g., ammonium iodide). The bath having the bleaching ability for use in the present invention can contain, if required, one or more inorganic or organic compounds having a pH buffering ability such as borax, sodium metaborate, acetic acid, sodium acetate, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, phosphorous acid, phosphoric acid, sodium phosphate, citric acid, sodium citrate, tartaric acid, malonic acid, succinic acid and glutaric acid, and alkali metal or an ammonium salt of these compounds, or a corrosion inhibitor such as ammonium nitrate and guanidine. Further, in addition, various brightening agents, defoaming agents, surfactants, organic solvents such as polyvinyl pyrrolidone and methanol can be added to the bath having the bleaching ability. The components of the fixing agent in a blixing solution and a fixing solution are known fixing agents, that is, water-soluble silver halide solvents such as thiosulfate, e.g., sodium thiosulfate and ammonium thiosulfate; thiocyanate, e.g., sodium thiocyanate and ammonium thiocyanate; thioether compounds, e.g., ethylene-bis-thioglycolic acid and 3,6-dithia-1,8-octanediol, mesoionic compounds and thioureas. These compounds can be used in combination of one or two or more. Moreover, the special blixing solution comprising the combination of the fixing agent and halide such as a large amount of potassium iodide as disclosed in JP-A-55-155354 can also be used. The use of thiosulfate, in particular, ammonium thiosulfate and sodium thiosulfate is preferred in the present invention. The amount of the fixing agent is preferably from 0.3 to 2 mol/liter, more preferably from 0.5 to 1.0 mol/liter. It is preferred for the blixing solution and the fixing solution for use in the present invention to contain sulfite (or bisulfite and metabisulfite) as a preservative, in particular, in the amount of from 0.08 to 0.4 mol/liter, more preferably from 0.1 to 0.3 mol/liter. With the amount of within this range and using the final bath according to the present invention, not only the capacity of the magnetic recording layer has been extremely improved, but the image storage stability showed desired results. The blixing solution and the fixing solution for use in the present invention can contain aldehydes (e.g., benzaldehyde, acetaldehyde), ketones (e.g., acetone), ascorbic acids, and hydroxylamines, if required, in addition to the compounds which release sulfite ions as the above described preservatives such as sulfite (e.g., sodium sulfite, potassium sulfite, ammonium sulfite), bisulfite (e.g., ammonium bisulfite, sodium bisulfite, potassium bisulfite), and metabisulfite (e.g., potassium metabisulfite, sodium metabisulfite, ammonium metabisulfite). Further, the bleaching solution, the blixing solution and the fixing solution for use in the present invention can contain a buffering agent, a brightening agent, a chelating agent, a defoaming agent and an antimold, as required. The pH of the bleaching solution and the blixing solution for use in the present invention is preferably from 4.5 to 6.2, more preferably from 5 to 6. The pH higher or lower than this range sometimes cannot exhibit sufficient capacity of the magnetic recording layer. The pH of the fixing solution is preferably from 5 to 8 or so. The replenishment rate to the bleaching solution, the blixing solution and the fixing solution for use in the present invention is from 50 to 2,000 ml, and particularly preferably from 100 to 1,000 ml, per m 2 of the photographic material. The overflow generated from the washing bath or the stabilizing bath, the next baths, may be replenished to the bleaching bath, the blixing bath and the fixing bath, if required. The processing temperature of the bleaching solution, the blixing solution and the fixing solution is from 20 to 50°C, preferably from 30 to 45°C. The processing time is from 10 seconds to 3 minutes, preferably from 20 seconds to 2 minutes. In carrying out the processing, it is particularly preferred to subject the processing solution having the bleaching ability of the present invention to aeration to maintain the photographic characteristics in extremely stabilized conditions. Various methods known in the art can be used for aeration including blowing air into the processing solution having the bleaching ability, or absorbing air using an ejector. In carrying out the air blowing, it is preferred to discharge air into the solution using a diffuser having fine pores. Such a diffuser is widely used in an aeration tank in the activated sludge processing. With regard to the aeration, the item disclosed in Z-121, Using Process C-41 , 3rd Edition, pages BL-1 to BL-2, published by Eastman Kodak Company (1982) can be utilized. In the processing using the processing solution having the bleaching ability for use in the present invention, vigorous stirring is preferred and the practical example disclosed in JP-A-3-33847, p. 8, right upper column, line 6 to left lower column, line 2 can be utilized as it is. Stirring as vigorous as possible in the desilvering process is preferred. Specific examples of the methods of forced stirring include the method wherein a jet of the processing solution is impinged on the surface of the emulsion of the photographic material as disclosed in JP-A-62-183460, the method wherein the stirring effect is raised using a rotating means as disclosed in JP-A-62-183461, the method wherein the photographic material is moved with a wiper blade, which is installed in the solution, in contact with the surface of the emulsion, and the generated turbulent flow at the surface of the emulsion increases the stirring effect, and the method wherein the circulating flow rate of the entire processing solution is increased. These means for increasing the stirring level are effective for the bleaching solution, the blixing solution and the fixing solution. It is supposed that the increased stirring level increases the rate of supply of the bleaching agent and the fixing agent to the emulsion film and, as a result, increases the desilvering rate. Further, the above means of increasing stirring are more effective when a bleaching accelerator is used, and it is possible to extremely increase the bleaching accelerating effect and to eliminate the fixing hindrance action due to the bleaching accelerator. The automatic processors which are used in the present invention preferably have the means of transporting photographic materials as disclosed in JP-A-60-191257, JP-A-60-191258, and JP-A-60-191259. As described in the above JP-A-60-191257, such a transporting means can greatly reduce the carryover of the processing solution from the previous bath to the next bath and effectively prevent the deterioration of the capacity of the processing solution, and is especially effective in reducing the processing time of each processing step and reducing the replenishment rate of each processing solution. The amount of washing water in the washing step of development processing A and B for use in the present invention can be selected from a wide range according to the characteristics and the application of the photographic materials (for example, the materials used such as couplers, etc.), the temperature of a washing water, the number of washing tanks (the number of washing stages), the replenishing system, that is, whether a countercurrent system or a concurrent system, and other various conditions. Of the foregoing conditions, the relationship between the number of washing tanks and the amount of water in a multistage countercurrent system can be obtained by the method described in Journal of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers , Vol. 64, pages 248 to 253 (May, 1955). According to the multistage countercurrent system of the above literature, the amount of the washing water can be greatly reduced, however, problems arise that bacteria proliferate due to the increased residence time of the water in the tanks, and suspended matters produced thereby adhere to the photographic material. In processing of the color photographic material of the present invention, the method of reducing the calcium ion and magnesium ion concentrations as disclosed in JP-A-62-288838 can be used as a very effective means for overcoming these problems. Also, the isothiazolone compounds and the thiabendazoles as disclosed in JP-A-57-8542, the chlorine based antibacterial agents such as chlorinated sodium isocyanurate, in addition, the benzotriazole, and the antibacterial agents disclosed in Hiroshi Horiguchi, Bohkin Bohbai no Kagaku (Antibacterial and Antifungal Chemistry) , published by Sankyo Shuppan K.K. (1986), Biseibutsu no Mekkin, Sakkin, Bohbai Gijutsu (Germicidal and Antifungal Techniques of Microorganisms) , edited by Eisei Gijutsukai, published by Kogyo Gijutsukai (1982), and Bohkin Bohbai Zai Jiten (Antibacterial and Antifungal Agents Thesaurus) , edited by Nippon Bohkin Bohbai Gakkai (1986), can be used. The pH of the washing water in the processing of the photographic material of the present invention is generally from 3 to 9 and preferably from 4 to 8. The temperature and the time of a washing step can be selected variously according to the characteristics and the end use purpose of the photographic material to be processed, but is generally from 15 to 45°C for 20 seconds to 10 minutes, and preferably from 25 to 40°C for 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Further, the photographic material of the present invention can be processed directly with a stabilizing solution without employing a washing step as described above. Any known methods as disclosed in JP-A-57-8543, JP-A-58-14834 and JP-A-60-220345 can be used in such a stabilizing process. A stabilizing solution contains dye image stabilizing compounds, for example, formaldehyde, benzaldehydes such as m-hydroxybenzaldehyde, bisulfite addition products of formaldehyde, hexamethylenetetramine and derivatives thereof, hexahydrotriazine and derivatives thereof, dimethylolurea, N-methylol compounds such as N-methylolpyrazole, organic acids and pH buffers. The preferred amount added of these compounds is from 0.001 to 0.02 mol per liter of the stabilizing solution, but the lower the concentration of the free formaldehyde in the stabilizing solution, the less is the splashing of the formaldehyde gas, and is preferred. From these points, m-hydroxybenzaldehyde, hexamethylenetetramine, N-methylolazoles such as N-methylolpyrazole disclosed in JP-A-4-270344, and azolylmethylamines such as N,N'-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)piperazine, etc., disclosed in JP-A-4-313753 are preferred as dye image stabilizers. In particular, a combined use of azoles such as 1,2,4-triazole disclosed in JP-A-4-359249 (corresponding to EP-A-519190) with azolylmethylamine such as 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)piperazine, and derivatives thereof is preferred because the high image stability can be obtained thereby and also low vapor pressure of the formaldehyde is generated thereby. Further, it is preferred to include various compounds in the stabilizing solution, if necessary, for example, ammonium compounds such as ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfite, metal compounds such as Bi and Al, a brightening agent, a hardening agent, alkanolamine disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,786,583, and preservatives which can be included in the aforementioned fixing solution and blixing solution, e.g., sulfinic acid compounds as disclosed in JP-A-1-231051. A washing water and/or a stabilizing solution can contain various surfactants to prevent the generation of water marks during drying of the processed photographic materials. Nonionic surfactants are preferably used above all, and ethylene oxide addition product of alkylphenol is particularly preferred. Octyl-, nonyl-, dodecyl-, and dinonylphenol are preferred as the alkylphenol and the addition mol number of the ethylene oxide is preferably from 8 to 14. Further, it is preferred to use silicone based surfactants having high defoaming ability. A washing water and/or a stabilizing solution are preferred to contain various kinds of chelating agents. Preferred chelating agents include aminopolycarboxylic acid, e.g., ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, organic phosphonic acid, e.g., 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid, N,N,N'-trimethylenephosphonic acid, diethylenetriamine-N,N,N',N'-tetramethylenephosphonic acid, and a hydrolysis product of a maleic anhydride polymer disclosed in EP-A-345172, and the like. The overflow generated by the replenishment of the above described washing water and/or stabilizing solution can be reused in other steps such as a desilvering step, etc. When the above each processing solution is concentrated due to evaporation by the processing using an automatic processor, etc., it is preferred to replenish an appropriate amount of water, compensating solution, or replenisher of each processing solution to compensate for the concentration by evaporation. There is no particular limitation on the method of supplying the water, but the following methods are preferred of all, e.g., a method wherein a separate monitoring water tank is established with the bleaching tank, and the amount of water evaporated from the bleaching tank is calculated from the amount of water evaporated from the monitoring water tank, and water is replenished to the bleaching tank in proportion to this amount of evaporation, which is disclosed in JP-A-1-254959 and JP-A-1-254960, and a method wherein a liquid level sensor or an overflow sensor is used to compensate for the evaporated amount of water, disclosed in JP-A-3-248155, JP-A-3-249644, JP-A-3-249645 and JP-A-3-249646. The water to be added to the processing solution for compensating for the evaporated portion of each processing solution may be city water, but the deionized water or sterilized water which is preferably used in the above washing step is preferred. The method of searching for the gradient in the present invention is explained. First, the test sample of a photographic material is wedgewise exposed to a light source having energy distribution of 4,800°K of black body radiation, and after the designated development processing is conducted, absorption densities of cyan, magenta and yellow are measured by status M condition to obtain a characteristic curve. Each point of fog + 0.2, + 0.5, + 1.0 and + 1.5 of the absorption densities of cyan, magenta and yellow to the logarithm of exposure amount (axis of abscissa) is plotted from the characteristic curve obtained, and these points are linearly approximated by the least square method. The inclination of the straight line obtained is defined as the gradient γ of the photographic material and γ of each of cyan, magenta and yellow is taken as γ (C), γ (M) and γ (Y), respectively. When development processing I and development processing II are carried out, the gradients of yellow, magenta and cyan obtained by these development processing, γ I (C), γ I (M), γ I (Y), and γ II (C), γ II (M), γ II (Y), respectively, of the photographic material of the present invention satisfy the following conditions: 0.8 ≦ γ II (C)/γ I (C) ≦ 1.2 0.8 ≦ γ II (M)/γ I (M) ≦ 1.2 0.8 ≦ γ II (Y)/γ I (Y) ≦ 1.2 More preferably they satisfy the following conditions: 0.9 ≦ γ II (C)/γ I (C) ≦ 1.1 0.9 ≦ γ II (M)/γ I (M) ≦ 1.1 0.9 ≦ γ II (Y)/γ I (Y) ≦ 1.1 When these conditions are not satisfied, the tint of the color of the print obtained from the color negative film developed by at least either one of development processing A or B breaks and the color reproduction worth appreciating cannot be obtained. In the present invention, γ I (C), γ I (M), γ I (Y), γ II (C), γ II (M), γ II (Y) each is preferably from 0.50 to 0.90, more preferably from 0.60 to 0.85, and particularly preferably from 0.65 to 0.80. The photographic material of the present invention comprises a red-sensitive layer, a green-sensitive layer and a blue-sensitive layer provided in this order from the support side. However, the order of arrangement can be reversed depending on the purpose, alternatively, the light-sensitive layers may be arranged in such a way that a layer having a different spectral sensitivity is interposed between layers having the same spectral sensitivity. Light-insensitive layers may be provided between the above-described silver halide light-sensitive layers, and on the uppermost layer and beneath the lowermost layer of the silver halide light-sensitive layers. These light-insensitive layers may contain couplers, DIR compounds and color mixing preventives described below. As the plurality of silver halide emulsion layers constituting each unit light-sensitive layer, a two-layer structure of a high sensitivity emulsion layer and a low sensitivity emulsion layer can be preferably used with the emulsion layers being arranged so as to decrease in sensitivity toward a support in turn as disclosed in German Patent 1,121,470 and British Patent 923,045. In addition, a low sensitivity emulsion layer may be provided farther from the support and a high sensitivity emulsion layer may be provided nearer to the support as disclosed in JP-A-57-112751, JP-A-62-200350, JP-A-62-206541 and JP-A-62-206543. In one specific example, a low sensitivity blue-sensitive layer (BL)/a high sensitivity blue-sensitive layer (BH)/a high sensitivity green-sensitive layer (GH)/a low sensitivity green-sensitive layer (GL)/a high sensitivity red-sensitive layer (RH)/a low sensitivity red-sensitive layer (RL), or BH/BL/GL/GH/RH/RL, or BH/BL/GH/GL/RL/RH can be arranged in this order from the side farthest from the support. A blue-sensitive layer/GH/RH/GL/RL can be arranged in this order from the side farthest from the support as disclosed in JP-B-55-34932. Further, a blue-sensitive layer/GL/RL/GH/RH can be arranged in this order from the side farthest from the support as disclosed in JP-A-56-25738 and JP-A-62-63936. Further, useful arrangements include the arrangement in which there are three layers having different degrees of sensitivities with the sensitivity being lower towards the support such that the upper layer is a silver halide emulsion layer having the highest sensitivity, the middle layer is a silver halide emulsion layer having a lower sensitivity than that of the upper layer, and the lower layer is a silver halide emulsion layer having a lower sensitivity than that of the middle layer, as disclosed in JP-B-49-15495. In the case of the structure of this type comprising three layers having different degrees of sensitivity, the layers in the unit layer of the same spectral sensitivity may be arranged in the order of a middle sensitivity emulsion layer/a high sensitivity emulsion layer/a low sensitivity emulsion layer, from the side farthest from the support, as disclosed in JP-A-59-202464. Alternatively, the layers can be arranged in the order of a high sensitivity emulsion layer/a low sensitivity emulsion layer/a middle sensitivity emulsion layer, or a low sensitivity emulsion layer/a middle sensitivity emulsion layer/a high sensitivity emulsion layer. Moreover, the arrangement may be varied as indicated above in the case where there are four or more layers. For improving color reproducibility, a donor layer (CL) for an interlayer effect having a different spectral sensitivity distribution from a main light-sensitive layer such as BL, GL and RL may preferably be provided adjacent or close to the main light-sensitive layer, as disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,663,271, 4,705,744, 4,707,436, JP-A-62-160448 and JP-A-63-89850. The silver halides preferably used in the present invention are silver iodobromide, silver iodochloride or silver iodochlorobromide containing about 30 mol% or less of silver iodide, and particularly preferably used are silver iodobromide or silver iodochlorobromide containing from about 2 mol% to about 10 mol% of silver iodide. Silver halide grains in a photographic emulsion may have a regular crystal form such as a cubic, octahedral or tetradecahedral form, an irregular crystal form such as a spherical or plate-like form, a form which has crystal defects such as twin crystal planes, or a form which is a composite of these forms. The silver halide grains may be a fine grain having a grain size of about 0.2 µm or less, or large size grains having a projected area diameter of up to about 10 µm, and the emulsion may be a polydisperse emulsion or a monodisperse emulsion. The silver halide photographic emulsions for use in the present invention can be prepared using the methods disclosed, for example, in Research Disclosure (hereinafter abbreviated to RD ), No. 17643 (December, 1978), pages 22 and 23, "I. Emulsion Preparation and Types", RD , No. 18716 (November, 1979), page 648, RD , No. 307105 (November, 1989), pages 863 to 865, P. Glafkides, Chimie et Physique Photographique , Paul Montel (1967), G.F. Duffin, Photographic Emulsion Chemistry , Focal Press (1966), and V.L. Zelikman et al., Making and Coating Photographic Emulsion , Focal Press (1964). The monodisperse emulsions disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,574,628, 3,655,394 and British Patent 1,413,748 are also preferred. Further, tabular grains having an aspect ratio of about 3 or more can also be used in the present invention. Tabular grains can be easily prepared according to the methods disclosed, for example, in Gutoff, Photographic Science and Engineering , Vol. 14, pages 248 to 257 (1970), U.S. Patents 4,434,226, 4,414,310, 4,433,048, 4,439,520 and British Patent 2,112,157. The crystal structure may be uniform, or the interior and exterior parts of the grains may be comprised of different halogen compositions, or the grains may have a layered structure. Silver halides which have different compositions may be joined with an epitaxial junction or may be joined with compounds other than a silver halide, such as silver thiocyanate or lead oxide. Further, mixtures of grains which have various crystal forms may also be used. The above described emulsions may be of the surface latent image type wherein the latent image is primarily formed on the surface, or of the internal latent image type wherein the latent image is formed within the grains, or of a type wherein the latent image is formed both at the surface and within the grains, but a negative type emulsion is essential. Of the internal latent image types, the emulsion may be a core/shell type internal latent image type emulsion as disclosed in JP-A-63-264740, and a method for preparation of such a core/shell type internal latent image type emulsion is disclosed in JP-A-59-133542. The thickness of the shell of this emulsion varies depending on the development process, but is preferably from 3 to 40 nm, and particularly preferably from 5 to 20 nm. The silver halide emulsion for use in the present invention is usually subjected to physical ripening, chemical ripening and spectral sensitization. Additives for use in such processes are disclosed in RD , No. 17643, RD , No. 18716, and RD , No. 307105, and the locations of these disclosures are summarized in a table below. In the photographic material of the present invention, two or more different types of emulsions which are different in terms of at least one of the characteristics of grain size, grain size distribution, halogen composition, the form of the grains, or light sensitivity of the light-sensitive silver halide emulsion can be used in admixture in the same layer. It is preferred to use the silver halide grains having a fogged grain surface as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,082,553, the silver halide grains having a fogged grain interior as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,626,498 and JP-A-59-214852, or colloidal silver in light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers and/or substantially light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layers. Silver halide grains having a fogged grain interior or surface are silver halide grains which can be developed uniformly (not imagewise) irrespective of whether these grains are in an unexposed part or an exposed part of the photographic material, and methods for the preparation thereof are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,626,498 and JP-A-59-214852. The silver halide which forms the internal nuclei of a core/shell type silver halide grains having a fogged grain interior may have different halogen compositions. The silver halide having a fogged grain interior or surface may be any of silver chloride, silver chlorobromide, silver iodobromide, or silver chloroiodobromide. The average grain size of these fogged silver halide grains is preferably from 0.01 to 0.75 µm, and particularly preferably from 0.05 to 0.6 µm. Further, the form of the grains may be regular grains and may be a polydisperse emulsion, but a monodisperse emulsion (at least 95% of which have a grain size within ±40% of the average grain size in terms of the weight or number of silver halide grains) is preferred. The use of light-insensitive fine grained silver halides is preferred in the present invention. Light-insensitive fine grained silver halides are fine grained silver halides which are not sensitive to light upon imagewise exposure for obtaining color images and which do not substantially undergo development during development processing, and they are preferably not pre-fogged. The fine grained silver halide has a silver bromide content of from 0 to 100 mol%, and may contain silver chloride and/or silver iodide, if necessary. The fine grained silver halides which have a silver iodide content of from 0.5 to 10 mol% are preferred. The average grain size of the fine grained silver halide (the average value of the diameters of the circles corresponding to the projected areas) is preferably from 0.01 to 0.5 µm, more preferably from 0.02 to 0.2 µm. The fine grained silver halide can be prepared by the same methods as the preparation of generally used light-sensitive silver halides. In the preparation of the fine grained silver halide, the surface of the silver halide grains does not need to be optically sensitized and also does not need to be spectrally sensitized. However, it is preferred to previously include known stabilizers such as triazole based, azaindene based, benzothiazolium based, or mercapto based compounds, or zinc compounds in the fine grained silver halide before addition to the coating solution. Colloidal silver can be included in the layer containing the fine grained silver halide grains. The coating weight of silver in the photographic material of the present invention is preferably 6.0 g/m 2 or less, and most preferably 4.5 g/m 2 or less.

In Table 3: (1) Emulsions J, K and L were reduction sensitized during preparation of the grains using thiourea dioxide and thiosulfonic acid according to the examples of JP-A-2-191938 (corresponding to U.S. Patent 5,061,614). (2) Emulsions A to I were gold, sulfur, and selenium sensitized, respectively, in the presence of the spectral sensitizing dyes which are described at each light-sensitive layer and sodium thiocyanate according to the examples of JP-A-3-237450 (corresponding to EP-A-443453). (3) Low molecular weight gelatin was used in the preparation of the tabular grains according to the examples of JP-A-1-158426. (4) In tabular grains, there were observed such dislocation lines as disclosed in JP-A-3-237450 (corresponding to EP-A-443453), using a high pressure electron microscope. (5) Emulsion L comprised double structure grains containing an internal high iodide core as disclosed in JP-A-60-143331. Preparation of Dispersion of Organic Solid Dispersion Dye ExF-3 shown below was dispersed according to the following method. That is, water and 200 g of Pluronic F88 (ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer) manufactured by BASF Co. were added to 1,430 g of a wet cake of the dye containing 30% of methanol, and stirred to obtain a slurry having 6% dye concentration. Next, 1,700 ml of zirconia beads having an average diameter of 0.5 mm were filled in an ultravisco mill (UVM-2) manufactured by Imex Co., the slurry was passed and the content was pulverized at a peripheral speed of about 10 m/sec and discharge amount of 0.5 ℓ/min for 8 hours. Beads were removed by filtration, water was added to dilute the dispersion to dye concentration of 3%, then heated at 90°C for 10 hours for stabilization. The average grain size of the obtained fine grains of the dye was 0.60 µm and the extent of distribution of grain sizes (standard deviation of grain sizes × 100/average grain size) was 18%. Solid dispersions of ExF-4, ExF-5 and ExF-6 were obtained in the same manner. The average grain sizes of fine grains of the dyes were 0.45 µm, 0.54 µm and 0.52 µm, respectively. ExF-2 was dispersed according to the microprecipitation dispersion method by pH shift disclosed in the example of JP-A-3-182743. The average grain size of fine grains of the dye was 0.05 µm. HBS-1 Tricresyl Phosphate HBS-2 Di-n-butyl Phthalate HBS-4 Tri(2-ethylhexyl) Phosphate The thus prepared photographic material was cut to a size of 24 mm in width and 160 cm in length, and two perforations of 2 mm square at an interval of 5.8 mm were provided 0.7 mm inside from one side width direction in the length direction of the photographic material. The sample provided with this set of two perforations at intervals of 32 mm was prepared and encased in the plastic film cartridge explained in FIG.1 to FIG. 7 in U.S. Patent 5,296,887. FM signals were recorded between the above perforations of the sample from the side of the magnetic recording layer coated on the support using a head capable of in and out of 2,000 turns with head gap of 5 µm at a feed rate of 1,000 mm/s. Sample Nos. 102 to 113 were prepared by replacing DIR coupler ExC-6 contained in the third, fourth and fifth layers of Sample No. 101 with comparative coupler Ex-1 shown below (DIR coupler disclosed in JP-B-5-84891) and the DIR couplers for use in the present invention as shown in Table 4. The addition amount of each DIR coupler was adjusted such that the gradation of the red-sensitive layer, when exposed to white light and processed by development processing I, coincided with that of Sample No. 101. Ex-1 (DIR coupler D-4 disclosed in JP-B-5-84891) Each of these samples were wedgewise exposed to white light and processed by the above-described development processing I-1 and II-1. Each of the obtained processed samples was measured for absorption densities of cyan, magenta and yellow to obtain the characteristic curve. From the characteristic curve obtained, gradients of the cyan, magenta and yellow of the samples subjected to development processing I-1 were found out and designated γ I (C), γ I (M) and γ I (Y), respectively, and those of the samples subjected to development processing II-1 were also found out similarly and designated γ II (C), γ II (M) and γ II (Y), respectively. The ratios of the gradients of cyan, magenta and yellow between development processing I-1 and development processing II-1 were calculated. The results obtained are shown in Table 4. Next, evaluation of the color turbidity of magenta to cyan density was conducted in the following procedure using the same samples. (1) Each sample was subjected to double exposure as follows. First exposure: imagewise exposure by red light Second exposure: each sample was further subjected to uniform exposure to green light in the exposure amount which gives magenta density of 1.7 at unexposed part of the red light of Sample No. 101 (2) Each sample was processed by development processing I-1 and II-1. (3) With respect to each sample processed, the value subtracted the magenta density at cyan fog part from the magenta density at the point giving cyan density of 1.8 was found out, and this value was taken as color turbidity. The smaller the value, the smaller is the color turbidity and the higher is the color reproducibility of the photographic material. With respect to sharpness, development processing I and II were conducted using the above samples and MTF value of 15 cycle/mm of magenta image measured by MTF method (Modulation Transfer Function) was obtained. The results obtained are indicated as relative values taking the value of Sample No. 101 of development processing I as 100. The test results of color turbidity and sharpness are shown in Table 5. From the results in Tables 4 and 5, it can be seen that the photographic materials having less gradient fluctuation in rapid processing and less degradation of color reproducibility and sharpness can be designed using the DIR couplers which release diffusible development inhibitors for use in the present invention.
