Cancelling the CCA Filter and Taking Pictures in
Artificial Light

A Super 8 camera uses tungsten (artjficial light) type of color film and
has a built-in CCA filter to adjust the color temperature for daylight
or "blue lamp" light.

light. To cancel the CCA filter, screw its cancellation adapter at the
bottom of the camera into the socket on the top of the camera, or a
lighting unit in its stead.
• Connect the lighting unit firmly to the camera placing the special rubber
mat between them. It is advisable to turn the camera itself in the final steps
of this action.
• When using a high power movie light, avoid getting closer than 1 meter
(3.3
tt)
to avoid burning the subject.
• It is advisable to use a pair Of floodlights instead of a powerful lighting
unit.
• DO not use the CCA filter cancellation adapter socket as a tripod socket.

When a cartridge of daylight type film is inserted, the CCA filter is
cancelled automatically.
