Lets not forget or learn not that half frame is not really half frame.

Half frame is full frame.  Barnack i think decided the Leica still
camera using movie film should be double frame.

So 24x36 is double frame. What we use now.

The standard format with 35mm for films was 24x18. Still might be now.
