126 Film Format

The film originally designated as 126 film was a roll film introduced by Kodak in 1906. It produced images 4.25" x 6.5". It was discontinued in 1949. In 1963 Kodak introduced a new type of film cased in a plastic cartridge, with the 126 name. The width of the film is the same as 35mm but it has only one registration hole per image. The cartridge is made up of two spools encased in plastic. The film was available in 12 or 24 picture rolls. Today it is only available in 24 picture rolls. When all the pictures are taken, there is no need to rewind the film.
