To provide a highly sensitive and highly durable electrophotographic
photoconductor, electrophotography, photographic apparatus and process
cartridge for the electrophotographic apparatus which is practical for a
high-speed copying machine as well as for a laser printer.The
electrophotographic photoconductor includes a photoconductive layer on a
conductive support, in which the photoconductive layer contains an azo
compound expressed by Formula (1) and wherein at least one of "Cp.sub.1"
and "Cp.sub.2" contains a coupler residue selected from Formula (2),
Formula (3) and Formula (4).
