Wind On Film: Speedlights flash, the picture is taken, the film 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 film the photographer could process himself, Ansco brought out in 1942 its Ansco-Color film, which was followed by Kodak's Ektachrome film; in both of these dye-couplers were incorporated into the separate emulsions.
