How many minutes are on my different sized reels?

A 3-inch, 8mm film reel, holds 50 feet of film. Most films were shot at 16 frames per second (fps) which gave approximately 3 minutes of running time. A 5-inch reel holds 200 feet of film or 12 minutes, and a 7-inch reel holds 400 feet of film or 24 minutes. These are estimates as higher frame rates produce shorter running times.

Do you have a template for DVD Amaray case wraps?

Yes we do, on the Amaray Template page.
