| | Contact print - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Contact prints are used to produce proof sheets from entire rolls of 35mm negative (from 135 film cassettes), and 120 (2 1/4 film rolls, to aid in the selection of images for further enlargement, and to aid in cataloging and identification. |
 | | In medium and Large_format photography, contact prints are prized for their extreme fidelity to the negative, with exquisite detail that may be seen with the use of a magnifying glass. |
 | | Smaller contact prints, from films and formats such as 135 film cassettes, 35 mm (24×36 mm images), and 120/220 rollfilm (6 cm), are useful for evaluation of exposure, composition, and subject. |
