The information should be given so that users of motion-picture and mag
19、netic films are able to identify the contents of a package easily and unambiguously in order to facilitate their reception, storage, distribution, etc. This information may additionally be given on the packaging and the labels in the form of bar codes. In addition to the mandatory information specif
20、ied, optional information as given in Annex B may also be included on the packaging and/or its label. 3.1 The name and the type of film in full and, if necessary, its alphanumeric designation, the type of colour sensitivity, film exposure index and a mark for magnetic stripes, all to be clearly prin
21、ted so as to be legible in subdued light. 3.2 The nominal film width in millimetres. 3.3 The inside diameter and the outside diameter of the core as indicated in ISO 1039, when specified. Cores which are not specified in ISO 1039 shall be identified by their dimensions N P Q. Film not mounted on cor
22、es shall include information on its packaging and labels concerning the type of reel, magazine, cassette or other form of mounting used. 3.4 Nominal film width after slitting, in millimetres, if the film is to be subsequently slit down from its original width; for example, 35/8, 32/16, etc. For amat
23、eur films, the more common generic term “double 8” as well as Type R and Type S may be used in lieu of the designation 16/8. 1) See definition in ISO 4246. where N is the nominal film width in millimetres; P is the inside diameter in millimetres; Q is the outside diameter in millimetres.BS 5550-5.1.
24、2:1993 2 BSI 10 March 2004 3.5 Perforation pitch and, if necessary, perforation type and row format (see Clause 4). 3.6 If necessary, the emulsion position and winding orientation of the film (see Clause 5). 3.7 If necessary, information about the type of base, the indication “safety film” and the f
25、ilm thickness. 3.8 Manufacturers batch number, except for films intended by the manufacturer for amateur use. 3.9 Length of film (which may be the sales or usable length) in the container in metres and, if necessary, in feet. Also, the number of rolls if there is more than one roll per container. 3.
26、10 Instructions for lighting conditions recommended to handle the film safely when opening the container. 3.11 A mark to indicate that the film is magnetically prestriped. The designation MB is recommended for magnetic stripes on the film base side. The use of the letter M alone is recognized but no
27、t recommended. The designation ME is recommended for magnetic stripes on the emulsion side. 4 Perforation characteristics 4.1 Method of identification Several perforation shapes and pitches and several perforation row formats presently exist in the motion-picture field. The methods of identifying th
28、ese different characteristics and their designations are listed in 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4. 4.2 Shape and designations of the perforation 4.2.1 For 35 mm films, the standardized perforation shapes are identified by the letter(s) P, N or DH. The shape and the dimensions of these perforations are specified i
29、n ISO 491. NOTE The perforation designated AC is obsolete and not in current use. 4.2.2 Perforations used for 16 mm single and multiple rows have not been given an alphanumeric designation. The perforation shape and dimensions are found in ISO 69. 4.2.3 No perforation shape identification is necessa
30、ry for 17,5 mm, 65 mm and 70 mm film having 35 mm P type perforations. 4.2.4 8 mm Type S perforated films are specified in ISO 1700, and are designated with an S. 4.2.5 16 mm films perforated 8 mm Type R are specified in ISO 486 and are designated with an R. 4.3 Information about pitch Pitch is spec
31、ified in nominal millimetres. 4.4 Rows of perforations The number and location of the perforation row(s) are specified from the reference edge as follows. 4.4.1 For films which have an end-use width narrower than the parent width and intermediate films whose subsequent print has an end-use width nar
32、rower than the parent width, the number of perforation row(s) in the parent width film shall be given in arabic numerals followed by the letter R; for example 1R, 2R, 3R, for 1, 2, or 3 row(s) of perforations. All possible perforation rows for a given parent-film/end-use combination are assigned num
33、bers, beginning with the number 1, starting at the reference edge of the parent film. The number assigned to the row(s) of perforations which actually exist on the parent film shall then be specified on the label as a series of numerals separated by a dash or dashes. Examples of this application are
34、 shown in Annex A. The reference edge of the parent width roll is the edge nearest to a row of perforations retained after slitting, i.e. without taking into account the row(s) discarded in any subsequent slitting. The row(s) of perforations which is (are) discarded shall always be given the number
35、zero. See Figure 1 for examples of the reference-edge to discard-row relationship. 4.4.2 Film not normally slit or used for small formats and containing two rows of perforations symmetrically located does not require information about the position of the rows of perforations.BS 5550-5.1.2:1993 BSI 1
36、0 March 2004 3 4.4.3 No perforation row identification is required for films which are 8 mm and 17,5 mm wide and which contain one row of perforations, or for other films for which an ambiguity does not exist. 5 Winding designation 5.1 For the designation of the emulsion orientation for sensitized f
37、ilms or, in the case of magnetic coated films, the side containing the magnetic coating, the following symbols shall be used: “EI” for winding emulsion inside; “EO” for winding emulsion outside. 5.2 For films with non-symmetrical rows of perforations, two types of winding are possible for the same p
38、osition of the emulsion. They are designated winding “A” or winding “B”. The definitions of “A” and “B” are based on the definition of a reference edge of the film. 5.2.1 When a roll of motion-picture film with non-symmetrical rows of perforations wound on a core or spool with the emulsion inside is
39、 held so that the outside end of the film leaves the roll at the top and toward the right, it is designated as: winding “A” when the reference edge of the film is toward the observer; winding “B” when the reference edge is away from the observer. See Figure 2 for illustration of windings. 5.2.2 For
40、convenience, the emulsion orientation symbols and winding symbols may be combined, i.e. EIA, EIB, EOA and EOB. 5.2.3 For 16 mm films with one row of perforations on spools for daylight loading cameras, winding EIB is preferred.

A parent width 16 mm f
42、ilm used for 8 mm production will be designated 16/8R and can have the following possible combinations of perforation row locations: 16/8R 2R (1-3) 16/8R 2R (1-4) For a film designated 35/8S, the following combinations can exist: 35/8S 5R (1-3-5-7-0) 35/8S 2R (1-0) Annex B (informative) Optional inf
43、ormation for containers and/or labels In addition to the information specified in 3.1 to 3.11, the following information may be included on the container and/or its label in either clear text or in clear text and also in the form of bar codes. identification of the manufacturer; identification of th
44、e country of origin; emulsion number; roll number; strip number; section number. The following information may also be included on the container and/or its label in clear text only: warranty; origin of the film; picture symbols indicating the use of the film; information on edge-printing; additional
