CCA Filter

The Super 8 camera is made to use tungsten type

(artificial light) film under all conditions.
Therefore there is a CCA filter built into the optical

path of the lens for adjustment of color temperature.

When shooting in daylight, the filter should be

applied, on the other hand, when shooting indoors

with artificial light, the filter should be removed

from the optical path.

However, when Type G film (for daylight or arti­

ficial light) or daylight type film is 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

the proper color balance unless this is done.
