Recording in Aperture-Priority (Av) Mode
The aperture value can be adjusted in 1/16 EV stops; however, the aperture value displayed on the
screen will change only in 1/4 EV stops.
Available aperture values (with the HD 20x L IS II or HD 20x L IS III lens)
F1.6, F1.8, F2.0, F2.2, F2.4, F2.6, F2.8, F3.2, F3.4, F3.7, F4.0, F4.4, F4.8, F5.2, F5.6, F6.2, F6.7, F7.3, F8.0,
F8.7, F9.5, F10*, F11*, F12*, F14*, F15*, F16*, F17*, F19*, F21*, F22*, CLOSE*
* Can only be selected if the custom function [IRIS LIMIT] is set to [OFF].
1. Set the
dial to
Av
.
2. Select the aperture using the IRIS dial or
the iris ring (only lenses with manual iris
ring, like the HD 20x L IS III lens).
With the custom function [RINGS DIRECTION]
(
100) you can change the direction of the
adjustment when you turn the iris ring and IRIS dial
(the setting is common to both).
Settings other than the aperture value (shutter speed, etc.) are adjusted automatically.
Using exposure lock to adjust the exposure manually will change the aperture, overriding the value
selected in
Av
mode.
When the GAIN dial is set to A (automatic gain), the numeric value on the screen flashes when the
selected aperture is not appropriate for the recording condition. In such case, readjust the
aperture.
When the built-in ND filter is activated, the picture may become dark when you set a high aperture
value. In such case, turn off the ND Filter first and readjust the aperture.
With the custom function [IRIS LIMIT] (
100) 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.
When a lens without iris control function is used, the aperture value will not appear on the screen.
With the custom function [LANC AE SHIFT] (
100), 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.
