Regular 8

Nonprofessional film format developed by KODAK in 1932 to compete with the Pathé 9,5mm. It consisted of a 16mm film with twice as many perforations. The first half (lengthwise) was exposed, then the reel was turned around to expose the second half (a little like audio cassette tapes). After processing, the film was cut in two lengthwise and the two parts were assembled. Widespread for a family use, this standard was replaced by Super8 after 1965.
