Notes on using SJ-3 color
fi
lters
These filters are consumable items. Replace them when they deteriorate or their
•
colors fade.
The heat generated from the flash head can warp the filters. However, this will
•
not affect their performance.
Scratches on the filters will have no effect on performance unless the filters fade
•
in color.
To remove dust or dirt, wipe the filter lightly with a soft, clean cloth.
•

to give the correct color temperature.
