Aperture Aperture You can affect the brightness of your recordings or change the depth of field by adjusting the aperture. Depending on the lens used, the aperture value displayed may differ (F value or T value) and available aperture 62 values will vary as well (A 203). You can select the adjustment increment and even use the smallest iris increment allowed by the lens. You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 159). Manual aperture: Adjust the aperture value manually. Push Auto Iris: Momentary automatic aperture. During manual aperture, press the PUSH AUTO IRIS button or other control to temporarily adjust the aperture automatically. Automatic aperture: The camera adjusts the aperture automatically.
