Perf

edit

Now I've got to go find my one roll of 828 film and see if it has a perf. I rather doubt it does, as if it did that would reduce the image area, as stated in the article. Denimadept 21:49, 27 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

spool

Anyone have a picture of an 828 spool? It seems the article should have one. Gah4 (talk) 00:49, 14 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

"The standard image format is 40 × 28 mm. This provides a 30% larger image compared to 135's standard 24 × 36 mm."

Shouldn't that be changed to "28 × 40 mm" for consistency? 87.75.117.183 (talk) 00:27, 24 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Also, 30% is the difference in area, not image size, which makes the figure rather misleading. 87.75.117.183 (talk) 00:33, 24 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
In geometry, it is usual to put x before y. Aspect ratios of display devices are commonly given as width x height. Choosing one, though, depends on which way you expect to hold the camera, and especially half frame cameras are portrait orientation. I am not sure why 24x36 is more usual for 35mm film.
