Abstract

A method for processing a silver halide light-sensitive photographic material by a super rapid process and an automatic processing machine used therefor is disclosed. The method comprises a step of processing an imagewise exposed silver halide light-sensitive photogrpahic material comprising a support and a photographic component layer provided on at least one side of said support, under conditions satisfying the equation given below: EQU 50.ltoreq.1.sup.0.75 .times.T.ltoreq.124 wherein l is the length of a path along which said silver halide light-sensitive photographic material to be conveyed for processing, the length being more than 0.7 m and less than 3.1 m, T is time, expressed in terms of seconds, necessary for said silver halide light-sensitive photographic material to pass through said path.
