      l. For best color rendition when using indoor color film, set shutter speed ot
     l/25 sec. for dork wolls, l/50 sec. for light wolls.
    Z.tor oll overoge work use SF bulbs. For the "professionol" opprooch use
    #5 bulbs up to l2 ieel, #ZS Auln beyond 12leet ond outdoors ot night
       for both color ond block ond white.
     3. With Kodochrome Type A film ond SF or SM bulbs no filter is necessory.
       For "professionol" results try SF bulbs ond Kodochrome Type A film with
     on 8lA filter. tVith other bulbs try 8lB filters.
     4. I'lo filter is required with Ansco lndoor Color film ond SM ond SF bulbs.
      With Ansco color film ond #5, #25 ond Bontom I bulbs o UV #16
         filter is suggested.
