   GM Ed,   
      
   EV> Me just thought Kino didn't mean a regular hand held 35MM camera.   
      
   EV> I'm sure that You met a few LIDs since You got Your Amateur Radio   
   EV> Operators license.   
      
   Well, I don't see people as LID's if they don't know about things but   
   will rather try to tell them how it works. Mind you, I'm not one that   
   knows everything about all things.   
      
   EV> I think I have already commented that a 35MM Motion Picture Film's   
   EV> image size is "Single Frame", where our hand held 35MM cameras image   
   EV> is "Double Frame, 24MM X 36MM".   
      
   Nope, the image that my handheld camera creates on the 36 mm raw film   
   material is 24mm x 35mm.   
      
   EV> I think when threading a 16MM Sound Movie Projector there was a Line   
   EV> imprinted in the projector to show where to correctly  place the   
   EV> film.   
      
   That has also been the case on the cinema projectors I've seen and on   
   the 8mm projectors I've used.   
      
   EV> My friend who was a Projectionist there, invited me to come upstairs   
   EV> to the "Booth" and taught me how to thread, check the carbons, frame   
   EV> the film by looking at the image by sliding a part on the side of   
   EV> the lens to make sure the correct count down number was in place, so   
   EV> when I switched from one projector to the other the customers   
   EV> wouldn't notice the changeover.   
      
   That is of course very important if you want to be perfect but generally   
   the public will not be upset by a missing or blank image.
