Recently bought a canister of lucky C1021 with an 80mmx20m roll inside. I have heard passing mentions of 80 mm film before, but this is the first time that I’ve ever actually seen it.
I snipped a piece of film off the roll, and it has type II perfs along both edges, which does mean it can be used in 70mm cameras that need perfs (1 edge) if you cut 10mm off one side.
However, when I went to look at what type of cameras used it, I found almost no information about it whatsoever. I saw one tidbit about it being used in a Soviet bombsight camera, but that’s all I could find.
Curious to know if anyone here might have any insight.
