ABSTRACT:
A method of detecting a frame edge of a film by a first group of light-receiving element arrays and a second group of light-receiving element arrays, each of the groups being composed of at least one array of light-receiving elements disposed perpendicular to the advancing direction of the film in such a manner as to be parallel with each other. The presence of a frame edge is preliminarily detected by the first group of light-receiving element arrays, and the position of the frame edge is precision-detected by the second group of light-receiving element arrays. Accordingly, since the precision detetction is effected after preliminary detection, the range of precision detection can be narrowed, thereby shortening the detection time.
