Lighting Systems
C300/C500 has provisions to utilize a variety of lighting systems. Ball mounts for the light
arms may be located in several locations on C300/C500: a) threaded into the top of the
Handle Grips: b) on the Foot Rails; or c) onto accessory mounts that slide onto the
same dovetail slots as the handle grips.
Controlling Reflections
While it is unlikely, you may encounter reflections from within the port area of
C300/C500 from anything shiny.
To control such reflections Gates recommends two easy measures:
Blackening the shiny area
with a black permanent marker; or
Install a mask over the lens, as shown in the photo.
This measure is rarely
needed, but if necessary black neoprene makes an excellent, flexible masking
material. Cut to your specific lens and cut the outer ring diameter to fit the port.
Port Masks will help control
reflections.
