Good pictures. The Nautilus CC Plus has the latter style, more like a cartridge, rather than the basket. There are two of these white cartridge filters in my model. They open with two twist lock cams and come apart into 3 pieces. Takes a couple of minutes to clean them out, reassemble and reinstall.
I do not have oak trees but my neighbor has a line of Chinese Tallow trees about 40' away and the other neighbor has pines about 50' away. I was not set on the basket or cartridge style but I think mine work well, it catches everything. The only thing it has not picked up was a young pine cone that would not fit into the vacuum slot.
Let me add one other item that needs to be mentioned, retrieval. This thing is heavy when wet. You only use the cord to pull it slowly to the edge of the pool and then up to the surface. It has a very robust handle for carrying and retrieving. You have to let it drain tilted on the edge of the pool, otherwise it's about 30-40#. I made a hook, like a gaff, to pull it up on the pool deck to keep any pressure off the cord. You can't use the cord to get it out of the water, it's just too heavy. Dry weight might be 15-20#.
