Subminiature
See the Category: Subminiature.
At the beginning of photography, a film format of 9x12cm or 4x5in was considered normal, so the first cameras using the 35mm film were called miniature cameras. This is why all the cameras with a smaller format have been called subminiature cameras. There was a huge variety of formats, mainly on 16mm and 9.5mm film. The most representative camera is the Minox 9.5mm.
Some people consider the 18x24mm format (half-frame format) as subminiature.
