dr5, or dr5-chrome, is a reversal black-and-white process, via which most kinds of black-and-white negative films produce transparencies (slides). It was invented by David Wood, a photographer turned photographic chemist.[citation needed]
History
dr5, the 5th incarnation.[vague][citation needed] Though reversal film processing is commonly known, the dr5 process is unique both in recipe and procedure.[citation needed] Done privately until 1998, the process teamed shortly with A&I[1] labs in Los Angeles CA.[citation needed] The dr5 process won best new product in 1999 at the '99 Photo Expo-Plus.[citation needed] In 2001 dr5 opened an independent lab at 38th and 8th in New York City.[citation needed] The lab used a processor made to dr5 specifications by Tecnolab[2] in Italy.[3] The dr5 lab moved to Denver Colorado around March 2002.[citation needed]
