Comments
The Compact 8 doesn't have a switch or knob to manually disable the internal filter, but a slot on the top of the camera. Insert the provided metal plate into the slot to turn off the filter. Konica also sold a special lamp that automatically disabled the filter when mounted on top of the camera.
