A B S T R A C T IMAGING SYSTEM An imaging process which comprises the steps of: (i) providing a first radiation sensitive element comprising a transparent base having coated thereon at least three imaging media each capable of forming a colour image upon imagewise exposure and processing, each of said imaging media capable of forming a colour image having a maximum sensitivity at a wavelength different from the wavelengths of the maximum sensitivity of the other imaging media capable of forming a colour image and the wavelength of the maximum absorption of the colour image formed by each imaging medium differing from the wavelength of the maximum absorption of the colour image formed by the other imaging media by at least 40 nm; (ii) obtaining colour separation information representative of the cyan, magenta and yellow and optionally black content of a colour original, or electronically generated image, (iii) exposing said first radiation sensitive element of step (i) to at least three independently modulated sources of radiation, each source being modulated by said colour separation information with respect to one colour and emitting radiation at a wavelength in the region of the wavelength of maximum sensitivity of one of said imaging media capable of forming a colour image such that a latent image representative of at least the cyan, magenta and yellow information of step (ii) is formed in individual colour forming media, (iv) processing said exposed radiation sensitive element to produce a transparency comprising at least three colour images, a first colour image being representative of the colour separation information for cyan, a second colour image being representative of the colour separation information for magenta and a third colour image being representative of the colour separation information for yellow; (v) exposing a second radiation sensitive element comprising a base having at least one imaging medium coated thereon through said transparency produced in step (iv) to record on said second radiation sensitive element an image corresponding to one or more of the images of said imaging media of the transparency.
