\"Super 16\"is an image format used in film productions.Super-16 is located on the picture field of 12.35×7.42mm (width time height). The image side ratio is 5 to 3 or 1:1.66. In contrast to the ordinary picture on 16 mm film, Super 16 offers more than 20 percent more usable negative image area, and thus a better resolution.\"Ultra-16\" formatis also a production format and differs from the \"Super-16\" in the symmetrical arrangement of the frame relative to the film. The frame \"Ultra-16\" is obtained by increasing the standard on each side in width. In this case, the corners of the exposed area partially overlap the perforation. Useful frame area with aspect ratio 1,85:1 occupies the entire height between perforations and is 11.8x6.25mm. It is possible to print cassetted film copies optically, as well as to receive high-definition video in 16:9 format.The advantage of the Ultra16 formatlies in the simpler alteration of standard filming equipment than for the \"Super-16\" with the same frame area. With the Ultra 16 format, you can use a film with both single-sided and double-sided perforations.A regular viewfinder can be used for framing, since the frame window is bored symmetrically. All 16mm optics without lateral displacement of the mount remain usable. The optical axis remains in the same place! Moreover, viewing the resulting film is possible with a standard film projector with a slight cutting of the image on the right and left, and after finalizing the film channel, the frame is visible in its entirety.
