Meopta Colour 3 Head enables a continuous, smooth setting of the density required for the given correction filter. Any of the three filters is set by means of turning knobs Y, M and C on the front panel of the instrument, fitted with illuminated scales. The interference filters used, which have been manufactured by vacuum-evaporation of dielectric layers on a glass carrier, are highly heat resistant, colour - fast and their service life is practically unlimited. The filtration range of all three filters is 0...200 filtration units. The set colour filtration can be easily cleared by the controlling device on the left side of the instrument. Moreover, the head for colour photography is fitted with an adjustable density stop. Setting of the exit luminous flux is accomplished by means of a perforated stop which is introduced into the light path by means of the turning knob D. The maximum scale value is 60 density units which corresponds approximately to 2 stop numbers of the lens. The set density stop can be put out of function by means of the controlling device situated on the right side of the instrument.

The colour head can be used for both colour and black-and-white printing. The colour head needs 12W halogen bulb as a source of light. You also need a transformer 12V/100W power supply to be plugged-in between a timer and a colour head.
Original Meopta transformer included.

The Meopta Universal mixing chamber is designed for use with the Meopta Colour 3 and Meograde heads, they will give even diffused light with the option of using the correct format size to get maximum light diffusion One is included.
