There is one additional wheel for setting neutral density, over a
range of 2 stops, in 0-60 d steps. So I guess if your filter factor
of Xc Xm Xy requires changing exposure time by Y amount to get same
base exposure on the paper, you just dial
the exposure difference with the ND wheel. Since I am not sure myself
why the exposure should change in the first place, I (will) use it
mainly for easy dodging and burning.

Why does exposure supposedly change when filtering for VC papers and it doesn't
change with VC head? Does it really change?
Thanks

Good light,
