8mm film has been around since 1932. It was the first method consumers had for recording home movies. 8mm was actually 25ft of 16mm wide film inside the cartridge. Users would load the film, expose half and then flip the cartridge over and expose the other half. The processing lab would split the film down the middle, join the two halves and return to the customer a 50 foot reel. Super8 film was always a 50 foot reel and provided better quality and faster frame rates. 16mm was essentially a professional format and was superior to both 8mm and Super 8 film.
