6 . The film package of claim 5 , wherein the fourth width is about 0.15 times to about 0.90 times the first interval.
7 . The film package of claim 5 , wherein the fourth width of the connection region is constant on the peripheral regions.
8 . The film package of claim 5 , wherein, on the peripheral regions, the fourth width of the connection region decreases as a distance of the connection region from the inner region increases.
9 . The film package of claim 1 , wherein a first width of the mount region in the width direction is less than a second interval between the sprocket holes in the width direction, and
a second width of the connection region in the width direction of is greater than the second interval between the sprocket holes in the width direction.
