The film cuts must always be performed as
stipulated in DIN 4536 or ISO 1977 (also see Fig.
3-1).
•
The film should be cut so that none of the
perforation holes are cut open.
•
The film cut must be 7...9 perforation holes
long and it must be parallel to the film edge.
•
The edges should be rounded to ensure that
the film does not get caught at the mouth of
the cartridge or at parts of the cassette.
•
The end of the film must be cut with a straight
edge and adhered to the film spool with a
piece of adhesive tape.
•
Avoid overly long film, as some cartridges
cannot be used for 36 frames or for every film.
This could damage the film advance
mechanism in the film cassette.
