Small format means film formats for frame sizes ranging from 24x24mm of Rapid film to 40x40mm on 127 film, the latter can also be attributed as medium format but 4x4cm slides can be displayed with small format projectors. The average small format frame size is that of type No. 135 film (35mm): 24x36mm

The original term for small format was miniature format. The cameras for smaller frame sizes are called subminiature cameras.
