Recording
Recording in Manual Mode
You can set the exposure at any combination of shutter speed and aperture. The aperture value can be
adjusted in 1/16 EV stops; however, the aperture value displayed on the screen will change only in 1/4
EV stops.
Available settings
* Only with the HD 20x L IS or HD 20x L IS III Lens.
** 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 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] ( 104) you can change the direction of the adjustment
when you turn the iris ring and IRIS dial (the setting is common to both).
3. Select the shutter speed with the SHUTTER or button.
With the custom function [OPER.DIRECTION] ( 104) you can change the direction of the adjustment
when you push the SHUTTER buttons.
You can use the custom keys ( 79) or the [SYSTEM SETUP/ ] [SHTR B.LOCK] setting
( 136) to prevent the accidental operation of the SHUTTER buttons.
With the custom function [IRIS LIMIT] ( 104) 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.
