    Abstract: A film transport has an intermittent drive mechanism with a claw for engaging sprocket holes in a film. The claw is driven by the mechanism to pull the film down frame by frame. Two or more cams are used to cause the claw to carry out a four-sided motion with a fast pull-down action. One of the cams or an additional cam may be provided to render the claw operative to effect pull-down at alternately long and short dwell intervals proportioned to allow scanning of a film frame by different numbers of complete television fields.
