Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A backing layer on the rear of the film base counteracts curling. Usually it contains also a nearly opaque dye to suppress light reflection on the rear support surface. Such reflection (halation) reduces definition by causing halolike effects around very bright image points. 6, record 1, English, - backing%20layer

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 DEF
Couche à l'arrière du support de film d'une pellicule photographique qui empêche la pellicule de rouler tout en agissant comme couche anti-halo, c'est-à-dire anti-réfléchissante. 3, record 1, French, - couche%20dorsale
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Ne pas confondre «couche dorsale» et «sous-couche». La couche dorsale respecte le schéma suivant : émulsion-support-dorsale, alors que la sous-couche occupe la position intermédiaire du schéma émulsion-sous-couche-support. Dorsale et sous-couche ne diffèrent en fait que par l'emplacement, car elles remplissent exactement le même rôle antiréfléchissant ou antihalo. 4, record 1, French, - couche%20dorsale
