Manual: FCCT - Filter Changer Camera Tilter
1. Now insert the desired filters into one
of the separately available filter drawers
using the enclosed tricot cotton gloves.
To do this, place the filter drawer with the
flat side down on a clean, dust-free cloth.
The side of the filter drawer that will later
face the camera is now facing down.
Insert the filter with the side facing
downwards that is supposed to face the
camera (e.g. with CMOS-optimised Baa-
der filters, the black filter edge now faces
downwards).
1. Now click the filter into the mount by ap-
plying light pressure from above so that
it sits flush. See also the videos on the
product pages of the filter drawers:

2. Use the Filter Extractor Tool (
6
in the
scope of delivery on
page 4
) to remove
the dark slider from the RASA, after you
have taken your dark frames ideally in a
darkened room (or with a dark opaque
cloth wrapped around).
3. Now use the Filter Extractor Tool to
reinsert the filter drawer with the desired
filter. The built-in neodymium magnets
ensure that each drawer is always held in
the same position and cannot fall out.
Note: Whenever manipulating a filter
holder, you can slide a finger between
the arms of the extractor tool for safety's
sake, so that the filter drawer cannot fall
to the floor under any circumstances.
