Adjusting the Iris
To manually adjust the Iris,
first press the Iris button which
is located on the back of the camera, right above the
battery compartment.
Once pressed, a numerical value will be highlighted on the
upper left side of the LCD screen.
Use the Adj/Vol dial located below the Shutter button to
either open or close the Iris. As the numbers increase your
image becomes darker, and as they decrease, more light
gets into the camera.
NOTE: Press the Iris button again to engage the
Automatic Iris, and the numerical value should disappear
Selecting the shutter speed
The Shutter is located right below the Iris. Press the
Shutter button to manually adjust it.
Once pressed, a numerical value will be highlighted on
the LCD screen, right below the iris selection number.
The shutter increments are expressed in fractions, i.e
(1/30, 1/60, 1/80, 1/100). With the slower shutter
speeds, (1/30 or 1/15) your image will be brighter,
however it will create motion artifacts to your footage,
while with a faster shutter, (1/100 or 1/250) your image
will be darker and have “stuttering” or “choppy” artifacts.
NOTE: The standard Shutter speed should
be at 1/60. Press the shutter button again
to engage the Automatic Shutter, and the
numerical value should disappear
