Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards institutes (IS0 member bodies). The work of developing inter-
national Standards is carried out through IS0 technical committees. Every member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up has the
right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
.--
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the IS0 Council.
International Standard IS0 1223 was developed by Technical Committee ISOiTC 36,
Cinematography, and was circulated to the member bodies in October 1978.
It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries :
Australia
Ireland Spain
Austria Italy Sweden
Belgium
Japan Switzerland
Canada Korea, Rep. of United Kingdom
Czechoslovakia Mexico USA
Denmark
Netherlands USSR
France Poland Yugoslavia
Germany, F. R. Romania
No member body expressed disapproval of the document.
This International Standard cancels and replaces IS0 Recommendation R 1223-1971,
of which it constitutes a technical revision.
