Recording in Manual Mode
You can set the exposure at any combination of shutter speed and aperture. The aperture value can be
adjusted in 1/8 EV stops; however, the aperture value displayed on the screen will change only in 1/4 EV
stops.
Available settings
* Can only be selected if the custom function [IRIS LIMIT] is set to [OFF].
1. Set the
dial to
M
.
• The exposure indicator appears. Use the exposure indicator as an estimate.
• The
mark above the indicator indicates the standard exposure (calculated by the camcorder). The
mark of the indicator indicates the current exposure level within
±
2 EV stops of the standard exposure
(beyond 2 stops, the marker will blink).
2. Select the aperture using the iris ring.
With the custom function [RINGS DIRECTION] (
95) you can change the direction of the adjustment
when you turn the iris ring.
3. Select the shutter speed with the SHUTTER dial.
With the custom function [OPER.DIRECTION] (
95) you can change the direction of the adjustment
when you operate the SHUTTER dial.
You can use the custom keys (
71) or the [SYSTEM SETUP/
] [SHTR D.LOCK] setting
(
128) to prevent the accidental operation of the SHUTTER dial.
With the custom function [IRIS LIMIT] (
95) you can activate the iris limit to prevent the aperture
from closing below the diffraction limit of the lens. If the iris limit is not activated, aperture values
that exceed the diffraction limit will appear in gray when selecting the aperture. Using aperture
values displayed in gray will cause diffraction blur.
With the custom function [LANC AE SHIFT] (
95), you can change the function of the AE SHIFT
dial on the optional ZR-2000 Zoom Remote Controller and use it to change the aperture value.
