126 film (roll format)

For the unrelated "Instamatic" cartridge film format, see 126 film.
126 was the name later given to a roll film format originally introduced by Kodak in 1906, for images 4 1/4 x 6 1/2 inches. It was discontinued in March 1949.

126 was one of a large number of different roll film formats introduced by Kodak in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The 1xx naming system was introduced in 1913 for both existing and new films.

Nowadays, the 126 designation is more commonly associated with the unrelated 126 cartridge-based film format introduced by Kodak in 1963.
