Abstract
An electronic film cartridge includes a can section that defines an outer contour and is used to hold electronic components, and an imager assembly. The outer contour is configured so as to not completely depress at least one sensor mounted to the film compartment of a photographic camera into which the film cartridge is to be inserted. The electronic film cartridge is also configured to fit within different cameras with different dimensions between the film can area and the aperture.
