Because of the difference in screenluminance typical of 35-mm slid

However, many 8-mm pro-jection conditions are different enough in luminance from55 cd/m2(16 fL) to require lighter or darker pictures.ANSI/PIMA IT3
7、.301 suggests that an adjustment which per-mits 1/3 stop more exposure for 8-mm films is permissible.This is standard practice by camera manufacturers. How-ever, since there is no standard for 8-mm projection, it is notpractical to write a separate standard for determining speedof 8-mm films.for Mot
