1. Set the POWER dial to Av.

2. Select the aperture with the IRIS dial.

You can select the direction in which turning the IRIS dial will adjust the aperture values, using the [IRIS
DIAL] option of the [SYSTEM/

] submenu.

Other settings such as the shutter speed are set automatically.
The aperture changes when you lock and change the exposure.
When the gain is set to automatic, the aperture number flashes on the screen when the selected

aperture is not appropriate for the recording condition. In such case, readjust the aperture.

When the built-in ND filter of a lens is activated, the picture may become dark when you set a high

F number. In such case, turn the ND Filter off first and readjust the aperture.
