You can affect the brightness of your recordings or change the depth of field by adjusting the aperture.
Depending on the lens used, the aperture value displayed may differ (F value or T value) and available aperture
values will vary as well (A 242). You can select the adjustment increment and even use the smallest iris
increment allowed by the lens.
You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 184).
Manual aperture: Adjust the aperture value manually.
Automatic aperture: The camera adjusts the aperture automatically.
Push Auto Iris: Momentary automatic aperture. During manual aperture, press the AUTO IRIS button to
temporarily adjust the aperture automatically (only while the button is held pressed down).
Aperture Settings of the Lens
To adjust the aperture from the camera, you will need to enable automatic adjustment using the controls on the
compatible EF Cinema/broadcast/RF (with iris ring) lens. Required settings vary depending on the lens. Refer to
the instruction manual of the lens used.
Set the lens or iris ring to automatic aperture.
