Adjusting the Aperture

• When you set the aperture value manually, it is not retained if you

activate automatic aperture control (excluding full auto mode). The
aperture value set automatically by the camcorder will be retained when
you switch back to manual aperture control.

• When you activate the built-in ND filter, the picture may become dark

when you set a high aperture value. In such case, set the ND filter to
OFF and readjust the aperture.

• You can use the [J Other Functions]

[Custom Function]

[I. Ring

Direction] setting (0 131) to change the direction of the adjustment
when you turn the iris ring.

• You can set the [J Other Functions]

[Custom Function]

[ZR-2000 AE SHIFT] setting (0 131) to [Iris] to change the aperture
value using the AE SHIFT dial on the optional ZR-2000 Zoom Remote
Controller.

• When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the

camcorder, you can adjust the aperture with the remote controller's
IRIS dial. At default settings, turn the dial right to open up the aperture
(smaller F value) and left to close the aperture (larger F value).

Temporary Manual Aperture Control Override
(PUSH AUTO IRIS)

During manual aperture control mode, press and hold the PUSH AUTO
IRIS button. While you keep the button pressed, the camcorder
automatically adjusts the aperture to achieve optimal aperture value and
exposure. When the shutter speed mode is set to auto (0 66) and the
AGC switch is set to ON (0 63) in advance, the shutter speed and gain
will be adjusted automatically based on the aperture value.

1 Press and hold the PUSH AUTO IRIS button.

• The camcorder automatically sets the exposure. The aperture value,

shutter speed and gain values displayed on the screen will change
accordingly.

2 Release the PUSH AUTO IRIS button.

• The camcorder returns to manual aperture control mode.

• The aperture value set by the camcorder will override the previous

setting.

NOTES

• If you press the PUSH AUTO IRIS button and immediately release it, the

screen may turn bright and then dark.
