Film is often measured in gauge (ga), mil, micron (mu), or millimeter (mm).
Know the micron and need to know the film guage? Need to convert the gauge to micron? Want to know the millimeter equivalent of micron?
To convert gauge to micron, divide gauge by 4. To convert micron to millimeter, divide micron by 1000.
