varies
according
to

can be
adjusted using the automatic
iris
or
manual
iris
settings.
• Automatic
iris
Set the lens
iris
selector switch (IRIS)
to "A."
The

automatically adjusted to obtain the brightness which
is
commensurate
with the subject.
This
unit's
automatic
iris
operation serves
to
measure
the
average
brightness of the
entire
screen
to
control
the
iris.
This
means
that the subject

tend
to
become
all
white or dark
when
a
spotlight
is
directed
on
the
subject or
when
the subject
is
shot
under
backlight conditions.
Use
the lens
iris
at
the
manual
setting for
lighting
conditions
such as
these.
