Focus on this -[ HMM ]-
An approximately ⅜” (9.5mm)-wide section of a frame of SMPTE 35-PA (RP-40) 35mm projector alignment film. (Click here to view a full frame of the film.) The checkerboard pattern serves as a focusing aid, and also helps to reveal steadiness and shutter timing issues.
I couldn't help but throw in a little pareidolia, courtesy of the two resolution charts, the centerpoint marker, and the black box used as an aid in detecting travel ghost (streaking that occurs when the shutter is improperly timed with the intermittent movement or damaged, or as a result of mechanical wear).
