Film

8 mm film is a motion picture format that is 8 millimeters wide. Super 8 has a larger image area due to the fact that it has smaller and more widely spaced sprocket holes.
Standard 8 mm film was developed by the Eastman Kodak company and released to the public in 1932.
Standard 8 mm film is also referred to as “Double 8” because it is actually 16 mm film that is exposed along half of its width and once on each side. It was developed for the purpose of saving money since it yields four times as many frames than the same amount of 16 mm film. 16 mm film is filmed at 16 frames per second.
Standard 8 mm has an image surface area of 4.8 mm x 3.5 mm.
One meter of standard 8 mm film contains 264 pictures.
Kodak stopped selling 8 mm film in the early 1990s.
For a period of time, Super 8 mm film was sold with a magnetic soundtrack strip on the edge of the film, allowing sound to be recorded with home movies.
Standard 8 mm film can be wound backward through the camera and rerun for a double exposure effect. This is not possible with Super 8 mm because its format is cartridge based.
In June of 2009, Kodak discontinued its production of Kodachrome film after 74 years.
