A device for conveying a motion picture film has at least one uniformly distributed row of perforations. An unwinding toothed reel, which continuously unwinds the motion picture film from a film supply reel, a winding toothed reel that continuously winds the motion picture film onto a film winding reel, and a film feeding mechanism, which intermittently conveys the motion picture film, engage inside said perforations. In order to switch the film conveyance from three to four perforation holes per film frame, the rotational speed of the film conveying motor connected to the winding toothed reel and to the unwinding toothed reel, is increased by 4:3, whereas the multiplication of the film feeding mechanism, of the movement gearing or of a movement gearing element can be altered by three or four perforation holes per film frame in order to adapt to the conveyance of the motion picture film.
