case, holding the filter at the edges to prevent
fingerprints.
2. The filter tray is located under the camera bracket on
the right side top of the darkroom. Slide the tray open.

the edge of the filter is positioned so the letters are
right side up when facing you.
Additional filters are available. Refer to Accessories for ordering information.
