Introduction
This document provides instructions for adding or editing lens color exceptions or changing a true curve that may differ.
The following example is for a Younger SV Polaroid. The True Base is 2.27, with an added exception in detail to change it to 2.25. Be specific when entering General Lens Information, so only the specified lens(es) are given the exception. A color code will need to be specified as well and may prompt for one.
