3.8 Adjusting iris aperture diaphragm
Swing the iris diaphragm lever (
Fig. 9
) left or right to
adjust the aperture size.
Note:
The iris diaphragm is designed to adjust the aperture
size, not to adjust the brightness although the
brightness will be changed when it's adjusted. When
aperture is adjusted to smaller size, the contrast will be
increased and the depth of field will be increased as
well. Turn up the intensity of the light if the image is too
dim
