Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for preparing a photographic tabular silver halide grains emulsion. The method is characterized in that the twinned silver halide seeds are precipitated, either in an external static nucleator working in laminar flow regime with a Reynolds number less than 2100, or in a kettle with a very low stirring rate with respect to the one generally used, and in that the concentration of the Ag.sup.+ ion solution is ranging from 0.04 to 0.3M. Obtained are tabular silver halide grains, the diameter distribution of which is less than 15%.
