A Proposed 8mm Sound Film System

John A. Maurer

A perforator and printing equipment have been built to produce film in accordance with the proposed 8mm sound film standard shown on page 623 of the SMPTE Journal for August, 1961, which uses perforations 0.050 in. square and provides for a variable-density soundtrack 0.050 in. wide. Prints have been made on Eastman Color Print Film, Type 7383. Design and performance aspects are discussed.
