Manual Iris

Available modes:

Tape Camera, Card Camera

The camcorder is preset to Auto Iris mode,
which automatically selects the optimal
aperture. However, when there is too much
contrast in brightness between the subject
and background, you may not be able to
record a clear image. In this case, use the
manual iris function to correct the iris value.

Background is too bright and subject too
dark (backlit subject).

• Decrease the iris value to allow more light

through the lens.

Subject is too bright against background.

• Increase the iris value to allow less light

through the lens.
