Abstract

A photographic film comprises an elongated light-sensitive strip having a longitudinal series of similar size rectangular exposure areas whose proportion of the width to the height is less than 2:1. Each exposure area is pre-exposed along a top-most portion and/or a bottom-most portion to limit the useable size of each exposure area during picture-taking to one whose proportion of the width to the height is at least 2:1. Thus, the useable size of each exposure area provides a panorama-like image format.
