Standard 35mm photographic film used for cinema projection has a much higher image resolution than HDTV systems, and is exposed and projected at a rate of 24 frames per second (frame/s). To be shown on standard television, in PAL-system countries, cinema film is scanned at the TV rate of 25 frame/s, causing a speedup of 4.1 percent, which is generally considered acceptable. In NTSC-system countries, the TV scan rate of 30 frame/s would cause a perceptible speedup if the same were attempted, and the necessary correction is performed by a technique called 3:2 Pulldown: Over each successive pair of film frames, one is held for three video fields (1/20 of a second) and the next is held for two video fields (1/30 of a second), giving a total time for the two frames of 1/12 of a second and thus achieving the correct average film frame rate.
At what rate is standard 35mm photographic film exposed and projected? To be shown on SDTV in PAL-system countries, at what rate is cinema film scanned? The technique in which with successive pair of film frames, one is held for three video fields, and the next is held for two, is called what? The 3:2 Pulldown techniques gives what total time for two frames? What is achieved by the 3:2 Pulldown technique producing a total time of 1/12 of a second for two frames?
