    EV> The LomoKino Camera uses a 36 (Standard Frame Size for a Still   
    EV> Camera) Exposure Roll of 35mm Film.   
      
    HG> Correct, the picture area on the film is 36x24 mm and the width   
    HG> of the roll of film is 35 mm. The height of the picture on the   
    HG> film is 24 mm. Just checked that with a ruler!   
      
   Now we're in agreement.   
   My concern was when I saw You type 36mm.   
   I never heard of any Film 1mm larger than 35mm Film.   
      
   From what I learned of the Kino Camera You get 144 images on a   
   36 Exposure roll of 35mm Film.   
      
    EV> It's been a long time since I used my fathers 8mm movie camera, but   
    EV> something about the size of the sprocket holes seemed to my mind   
    EV> (???) that they were smaller holes than what 16mm film had.   
      
    HG> I'm not familiar with the "Super 8" film cameras or the film   
    HG> itself but maybe the sprocket holes differ from the ones on 16   
    HG> mm film materal and I can't check it but I do know that the   
    HG> Super 8 film can not be shown on a projector for the "double 8"   
    HG> format.   
      
    HG> I still have a Paillard Bolex "double eight" film camera where   
    HG> the spool was turned around to use the other half of the 16 mm   
    HG> film.   
      
    EV> I remember doing that with Dad's camera too.   
      
    HG> Then it must have been a "double 8" camera using 16 mm film   
    HG> material.   
      
   Yep!, when I read about it on the Wikipedia article it called the Film   
   for my Dads 8mm Camera "standard 8", but it also said that film was   
   also called "double 8".   
      
   Iirc his camera only said "8mm" on it, there wasn't any other word B4   
   the "8mm", I think.   
      
   I didn't take time to look up Super 8 since I never had any experience   
   with it, and I was sure that You were talking about the same kind of   
   8mm Film that I knew of.
