CCA Filter
The Super 8 camera is made generally so as to allow
filming with tungsten light film (artificial light) in
daylight conditions.
Therefore there is a CCA filter built-in for adjust¬
ment of color temperature within the optical path
of the lens. When shooting in daylight, the filter
should be applied, on the other hand, when shoot¬
ing indoors with artificial light, the filter should be
removed from the optical path.
However, when the G type film for daylight or
artificial light and daylight type film are loaded into
this camera, the filter is automatically cancelled no
matter what the position of the filter switch is.
Settings of the CCA Filter
When you are using tungsten type film, the CCA
filter has to be set differently according to the kind
of light source.
Under artificial light, slide down the filter setting
switch and when the
Q
mark Is visible, the filter
IS
cancelled. In daylight, slide up the switch until
^
mark is Indicated. It is Impossible to obtain
12 the proper color balance unless this is done.
