What is a reverse film?

I. Concept

There are color and black and white, and inversion is actually a color inversion film, which is often used in still life photography. It makes sense to call it a reversal film: the first stage develops to form a negative image, and then uses color dyes to form a positive image. Black-and-white reversal film can directly obtain the transparent film of the dark image consistent with the main body; The color reversal film can directly obtain the transparent film with the same color as the subject, and the color is true and bright, but the tolerance is small.
