The usual frame size of 35mm still cameras is 24×36 mm, however half-frame cameras typical use an image area of 18×24 mm. One net result of this is that a roll of film can typically contain twice the number of exposures as in a full frame 35mm camera (that is, a roll that is nominally 36 exposures allows 72 in the half-frame format).
These are also the only two SLRs that ever offered a choice of full- or half-frame exposures, switched by a lever on top of the camera. The frame size can be changed between 24×36 landscape and 18×24 portrait in mid-roll. Autorex is the name for the domestic Japanese market. In Germany the camera was also sold as Revue Auto-Reflex.
This produced 24 half-frame pairs on a 24-exposure roll. The result was an ideal camera for those satisfied with half-frame format slides. David Burder came up with more radical modifications. One, the original Burdlo, featured a modified lens board with two lenses but essentially the same film advance to take full-frame stereo pictures.
The 2016 Olympus PEN-F pays tribute to the old 1960's PEN F-series half-frame cameras with its name and design. There is one more model in the Digital PEN range, which does not really fit any of these categories. It is the digital PEN-F from 2016. It pays tribute to the above-mentioned old PEN F half-frame SLR. These cameras look alike as well.
The Ducati Sogno ("dream") was a half-frame 35 mm rangefinder camera made by Ducati in the 1950s [2] [3] at its Milan factory. [4] The Sogno has been called a "miniature Leica" referring to its size and build quality; [4] it is considerably smaller than a Leica III.
