The length of 8mm film tapes

There are four standart 8mm film roll types (3, 5, 6 and 7 inches). For quick estimation of film tape length, the best way is to check it's diameter. As many centimeters of film tape you have, so many minutes of the material there is (it's very inexact but you can easily check the approximate film lenght).

TYP A - 3 inches, 50 feet, 15 meters, roll diameter 7.5 centimeters, about 4 minutes of material

TYP B - 5 inches, 200 feet, 60 meters, roll diameter 12.7 centimeters, about 13 minutes of material

TYP C - 6 inches, 300 feet, 90 meters, roll diameter 15.5 centimeters, about 20 minutes of material

TYP A - 7 inches, 400 feet, 120 meters, roll diameter 17.5 centimeters, about 25 minutes of material
