204 RICHARDSON'S BLUEBOOK OF PROJECTION Aperture Plate Tension, page 222 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. What is the effect of insufficient tension at the aperture? What is the effect of too much tension at the aperture ? What tension at the aperture imposes the least strain upork^_ both the film and projector mechanism? Describe a practical method of adjusting tension at the aperture without resorting to special tools. How do you determine whether or not the tension shoes on each side are exerting the same pressure ? Why does good definition require that the surfaces of the tension shoes and the aperture plate tracks be perfectly level and flat? Will worn tension shoes and aperture plate tracks buckle the film as it lies over the aperture?
