Notes on this view:

Two types of silver dye bleach micrographic films were available: Type M, or CMM, was a high contrast master film for reproducing reflection prints and Type P, or CMP, was low contrast print film for reproducing transparencies or for use as a duplicating film. The film was processed using three baths (developer, bleach, fix), which took about six minutes. The images were viewed by projection or microfiche readers, which use intense light for prolonged periods. The films have excellent resolution and light stability. The product was later renamed Ilfochrome Micrographic Film.
