The half-frame camera was created to extend the value of a single roll of 35mm film. A single frame on 35mm film is 24 millimeters by 36 millimeters. A half-frame camera exposes only half of that frame, producing an exposure measuring 24 millimeters by just 18 millimeters. This means that where a typical role of 35mm film in a typical 35mm camera nets the photographer 36 exposures, a half-frame camera nets the photographer 72 exposures, doubling the monetary value of the film. Nowadays, since film is digitized rather than developed in a traditional projection process (for the most part), it is easier to scan in half-frame exposures in pairs. The result is a pre-made diptych of sorts. The photographs in this gallery were made with an Olympus Pen FT camera on Ektar film made by Kodak.
