The term 135 was introduced by Kodak in 1934[1] as a designation for 35 mm film specifically for still photography, perforated with Kodak Standard perforations. It quickly grew in popularity, surpassing 120 film by the late 1960s to become the most popular photographic film size. Despite competition from formats such as 828, 126, 110, and APS, it remains the most popular film size today.
The size of the 135 film frame with its frame's aspect ratio of 1:1.50 has been adopted by many high-end digital single-lens reflex and digital mirrorless cameras, commonly referred to as "full frame". Even though the format is much smaller than historical medium format and large format film, being historically referred to as miniature format[2] or small format,[3] it is much larger than image sensors in most compact cameras and smartphone cameras.
The engineering standard for this film is controlled by ISO 1007 titled '135-size film and magazine'.[4]
