New tiny 35mm cartridge allows smaller cameras

Article Abstract:

The Konica Mini is the first point-and-shoot camera to handle a film cartridge which is the size of an AA-cell battery. Fuji and Kodak will make their own models. The film is thinner and the camera is re-usable which means only Konica can reload it, but it is available only in Japan for now.

35mm: the little cartridge that could

Article Abstract:

Eastman Kodak patented the technology behind the 35mm film cartridge on November 5, 1935, but many companies and individuals had a hand in its genesis. 35mm cartridges face a challenge from new Advanced Photo System (APS) technology, but that system's complexity may keep 35mm alive.
