What Are 35mm Slides?
Lots of people don't understand what 35mm slides are. These slides are not "negatives", as some people think. They are "positives." The most common are the small, positive pieces of film, normally about 1.375" by .875", held by rectangles of cardboard or plastic so that they end up as 2 inch squares. There are, of course, many different sizes that have been created, in the past. They can be viewed with small hand viewers but are usually projected onto a screen with a 35mm slide projector.
The size of what you see displayed on the screen is based on the distance from the projector. The further away from the screen, the larger the 35mm Slides will display. You can get 35mm slides by simply putting slide film in your camera instead of print film and then having them developed as slides instead of prints. This is rapidly proving to be ancient history as more and more people move to the more easy to use digital cameras.
