MIX control is turned full right, CAM B is 

eliminated (see Figure 6B); turned full left and 

CAM A is eliminated (see Figure 6C).

10. Press the DIFF Switch with the MIX control 

knob at its midpoint range. CAM A image is 

now superimposed on top of a reversed image 

of CAM B (see Figure 7A). 

NOTE:

 This mode 

is particularly use-

ful when working 

with prints devel-

oped with light-

colored powders.

 

Adjust the amount 

of DIFF by turning 

the MIX control clockwise to intensify CAM A image or counterclockwise to intensify CAM B. If 

the MIX control is turned full right, CAM B is eliminated (see Figure 7B); turned full left and CAM 

A is eliminated (see Figure 7C). 

11. Press the FREEZE Switch to capture the current position of CAM B image. Now, you need only to 

reposition CAM A image to align. This is especially useful when attempting to superimpose one print 

over the other as in the FADE or DIFF modes. 

NOTE: 

The FREEZE mode actually captures the 

image seen with CAM B. In other words, you can remove the ten-print card from the focusing jack 

and not loose the previous image you’ve now captured—that is, until you deactivate FREEZE. 

The 

FREEZE mode can be activated when comparing in L/R, T/B, FADE, or DIFF modes. Remember, 

even if you had previously activated EXCH mode, only CAM B image will FREEZE.

12. Press the EXCH Switch to swap CAM A and CAM B images. If the unit is operating in L/R mode,
