8mm Film

Regular-8 is also known as standard-8, double-8, cine-8, normal-8 or 8mm. This film size was introduced in 1932. Old cameras ran at 15 or 16 FPS (frames per second.) Cameras made after the mid-1950's were mostly designed to instead normally run at 18 FPS. (Fairchild once made magnetic sound* cameras, which ran at 24 FPS. The magnetic striped sound film was discontinued many years ago.) Regular-8 film is 5/16" (8mm) wide.
