1、 1 Scope This standard specifies the cutting and perforating dimensions for 35-mm motion-picture film with a BH-type perforation and a perforation pitch of either 0.1866 in or 0.1870 in (4.740 mm or 4.750 mm). 2 Normative reference The following standard contains provisions which, through reference
2、in this text, constitute provisions of this standard. At the time of publication, the edition indicated was valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the standard
3、 indicated below. SMPTE 223M-2001, Motion-Picture Film Safety Film 3 Dimensions 3.1 The dimensions shall be as given in figure 1 and table 1. 3.2 The dimensions pertain to safety film as defined in SMPTE 223M. 3.3 The dimensions apply at the time of cutting and perforating for film adjusted to a tem
4、perature of 23C 1C (nominally converted to 73F 2F) and a relative humidity of (50 2)%. The manufacturer may indicate other nominal temperature and humidity conditions under which the dimensions apply. 3.4 Dimension H is a calculated value, without corner radii. NOTE The title of this standard was es
5、tablished by the application of a nomenclature system developed for all film dimension standards. Each title provides an indication of the film width, a code designation for the perforation shape (BH, KS, DH, or CS), or the number of rows of perforations (1R, 2R, etc.), depending upon which is the s
6、ignificant factor, or the perforation pitch without the decimal point.

11、ect. A.2 Film for positive use has a longitudinal pitch 0.2% longer than its companion negative. Shrinkage of the negative during aging and processing prior to printing will generally not exceed 0.2%. Thus, the negative stock is expected to be 0.3% 0.1% shorter than the positive. This difference wil
12、l minimize slippage between the two on the 12 in (305 mm) circumference sprocket of the printer, assuming a film thickness of 0.0055 in to 0.0065 in (0.140 mm to 0.165 mm). A.3 The uniformity of pitch, hole size, and margin (dimensions B, Cd, D, and E) are important variables affecting steadiness. V
13、ariations in these dimensions from roll to roll are of little significance compared to variations from one perforation to the next within any small group of consecutive perforations. As an example, the uniformity of the margin is uniquely critical for optical printing. During the printing process, t
14、he placement of the image on the film is usually with respect to successive lateral pairs of perforations at oneframe intervals. During subsequent projection, however, the portion of the image projected is usually located, not by these perforations, but by the edge of the film. The lateral steadines
15、s of the projected image is, therefore, directly related to the frame-to-frame uniformity of the margin.
