Controlling Brightness: Iris and Gain
IRIS:
The Iris on a camera is like the pupil of your eye,
an opening that can be enlarged to let in more
light when the room is dark, or closed when the
scene is well lit.
For convenience, the camera can adjust its own
Iris in the AUTO mode, or be adjusted by you in
the MANUAL mode.
For AUTO mode, push the round button labelled
IRIS. The viewfinder should display text reading
“AUTO IRIS” (if it reads “MANUAL IRIS”, push the
button again).
The MANUAL IRIS provides more control over
picture brightness. Push the round button until the
viewfinder displays “MANUAL IRIS”.
Turn the IRIS ADJUST wheel until the picture is
the correct brightness.
Your viewfinder may also display “f-stop” numbers,
which relate to the size of the iris opening. See
page 18 for information on the viewfinder display.
GAIN:
The Gain function increases the cameras sensitivi-
ty to light. This has the effect of making the picture
brighter when the room is too dark.
To make the picture brighter, the camera sacrifices
image quality, so before you “boost the gain”, see
if you can turn on more lights.
The GAIN MODE switch has 3 settings:
Low (no increase), Medium, and High
Make sure the IRIS is fully open (in manual
mode) or in AUTO before increasing Gain.
Other Brightness Controls:
ND (Neutral Density) FILTER
This switch is a like putting sunglasses on the
camera, for shooting outdoors on bright days.
When shooting indoors, the switch should almost
always be OFF. The other settings cut the bright
-
ness by about 1/8th or 1/64th.
