ABSTRACT:
A film passing by an aperture of a film gate for purpose of projection or exposure is immersed in a liquid in order to minimize the effect of optical imperfections in or upon the film. When changing from one reel or roll of film to the next sufficient liquid is withdrawn so that the new film can be threaded into the film gate in a dry state; however, the interior glass surfaces of the gate are not permitted to become dry, but instead are continuously washed with liquid so as to prevent the accumulation of particulate matter or other foreign material that would tend to degrade the quality of the image.
