4.2 Sía uppsetning
- Select the desired Lee filter from the provided kit.
- Insert the filter into the designated filter holder slot on the front of the RL48-B.
- Ensure the filter is seated properly and securely.
The RL48-B includes a filter-holder for easy attachment of the supplied Lee Filters. These filters allow for adjustment of color temperature (CTO, CTB) and light intensity (Neutral Density), as well as diffusion.
5. Rekstur
5.1 Kveikt/slökkt
To power on the Rotolight RL48-B, locate the power button on the side of the unit and press it. Press again to power off.
5.2 Adjusting Light Output (Dimming)

5.3 Að stilla litahitastig
The included Lee Filters allow for precise color temperature adjustments:
- Lee 205, 3200 CTO: Converts daylight (5600K) to Tungsten (3200K) for warmer tones.
- Lee 218 CTB: Converts Tungsten (3200K) to Daylight (5600K) for cooler tones.
- Lee 216 Diffusion: Softens the light output.
- 279 1/8 Minus Green: Corrects for green casts from fluorescent lighting.
Select and insert the appropriate filter based on your desired color temperature and lighting conditions.

7. Bilanagreining
| Vandamál | Möguleg orsök | Lausn |
|---|---|---|
| Ljós kviknar ekki. | Rafhlöður sem eru tómar eða rangt settar í. | Skiptið rafhlöðunum út fyrir nýjar AA rafhlöður og gætið þess að þær snúi rétt. |
| Ljósútgangurinn er of daufur. | Neutral Density (ND) filter is installed. | Remove or replace the ND filter with a lighter one. Ensure batteries are fresh. |
