FLOWFILM MICROFILMING:
Using a MicroInstruments Flow Film Rotary Vacuum Drum Camera, we are
able to reduce graphic records with dimensions up to 23 inches wide and
several hundred feet in length down to a 35mm continuous flow image on
high resolution, black and white, silver emulsion non-perforated film.
Reduction ratios can be times 8, 10, 12, 16 and 20.  The process is
particularly suited for rolled records such as those from echosounders,
seismic reflection profilers and magnetometers as well as fan folded
computer printout.


ADDITIONAL SERVICES:
* Production of working copy silver emulsion direct duplicate films

* Record organization for sequential filming and production of 
  indexes which are then filmed to list film contents

* Test strips for evaluation of process and output

* Page sized xerographic blowback prints

EQUIPMENT:
* Camera: Microinstruments Corp. FMF Microcorder (35mm x 100 feet)

* Duplicator:  ITEK 303DL, quartz iodide  (35mm x 1000 feet)

* Film Processor: Kodak Prostar (35mm x 1000 feet)

* Reader/Printer: Minolta RP605Z
	Lenses: 7.5X, 9X-16X zoom, 13X-27X zoom
	Media:   100' roll film (motorized transport)
		 Microfiche holder
	Printer: 8.5 x 11" xerographic prints
		 (small charge for prints)
		

MATERIALS:
* Archive (original) film: Kodak Imagelink HQ, 35mm x 100'
                           non-perforated black and white
			   (resolution 220 lines/mm)

* Working Duplication film: Kodak direct duplicating #2468, 
			    non-perforated (35mm x 1000')

PERSONNEL:
Dale Newhouse, GDC's micrographics technician, has had more than
twenty years experience filming and processing microfilms of
marine geological/geophysical and other types of records and has
been involved in collecting these data on numerous geological and
geophysical cruises.

COSTS:
Microfilm duplicate (silver emulsion):  $35/reel (quantity discounts)

Costs for films and for personnel time and materials for other services
may be charged to UCSD Index numbers or paid for by non-UCSD Purchase
Orders.
