120 Film And Ten: Speedlights flash, the picture is taken, the 120 film and ten automatically advances, the shutter is cocked, and all is in readiness for the next child in the line.

At first the processing required complex machinery and precise control and, consequently, was done exclusively by the manufacturer. To answer the demand for a 120 film and ten the photographer could process himself, Ansco brought out in 1942 its Ansco-Color 120 film and ten, which was followed by Kodak's Ektachrome 120 film and ten; in both of these dye-couplers were incorporated into the separate emulsions.
