Field angles
Narrow and wide angle options are available for the MAC 600 (E) NT. The optional lenses are mounted in snap-lock
hoods for easy changing. See “Accessories” on page 31.
Note: The narrow angle hood is longer than the standard hood. Because of this, MAC 600s and MAC 600 (E) NTs
fitted with the narrow angle hood fit only in flight cases produced after September, 1997. These measure 894 mm
(35.2") from bottom to top, including wheels. Earlier flight cases measure 860 mm (34") from bottom to top, including
wheels.
To c ha nge f i el d a ngl e
1
Release the snap locks and remove the hood and lens assembly.
2
Unhook the head safety wire from the hood being removed and place it on the one being installed.
3
Place the hood over the head. Align and close the snap locks.
Color filters
The color wheel provides 4 dichroic glass filters: red 308, green 203, blue 108 and UV. The filters are held by a spring
clip and may be removed. To avoid damaging the coating, wear clean lint-free gloves when handling the filters.
