8.8.1 About P-Iris
New Elite Series EL-2800M-GE2 and EL-2800C-GE2 come equipped with P-Iris control as part of the
standard lens control function. The P-Iris system is a newly developed lens control method designed
to control the iris more precisely. Especially for video cameras in surveillance applications utilizing
megapixel CCD or CMOS imagers, it becomes a very important factor to control an iris in order to
achieve the maximum camera performance. In surveillance applications, depending on shooting
conditions, resolution and depth of field are important factors. The iris is deeply related with these
factors. If the iris diaphragm is smaller, but not too small, resolution gets better and the depth of
field is also deeper. The P-Iris system controls the iris diaphragm precisely and maintains the best
image with the highest resolution and depth of field. P-Iris can also combine with gain and
electronic shutter to keep the appropriate iris position under changing lighting conditions (ALC
function).
8.8.2 Setting for P-iris lens being used
P-iris lenses use an absolute setting value control system and therefore, if the following
parameters are input, precise iris position control is possible.
