Abstract

A device for reading positional information on photographic films used for reading, when a photographic film is being fed, pieces of positional information provided on the film in a predetermined order and in correspondence with a plurality of image frames recorded on the film in the longitudinal direction thereof. The device is designed to determine whether or not any piece of positional information read has been erroneously read; when it is determined to have been erroneously read, the device selects the correct image frame on the basis of those pieces of positional information for image frames which are adjacent to that piece of positional information determined to have been erroneously read. Thus, even if an error has occurred in the reading of positional information, the subsequent processes need not be interrupted.
