# Adjusting the Aperture
70
To change the aperture mode and value
1 Open the aperture [Mode] submenu.
[~ Camera Setup] > [Iris] > [Mode]
This submenu is available only with lenses compatible with automatic
aperture. Otherwise, start from step 3.
2 Select [Manual] and then press SET.
When using a compatible EF Cinema lens, enable automatic
adjustment on the lens (A 69).
3 Open the [Iris Increment] submenu.
[~ Camera Setup] > [Iris] > [Iris Increment]
4 Select [1/2 stop], [1/3 stop] or [Fine] and then press SET.
5 Turn the control dial assigned to [Iris] to adjust the aperture.
The selected aperture value will appear on the lower left of the screen.
When [~ Camera Setup] > [Iris] > [Iris Increment] is set to [Fine],
the actual increments will be smaller than 1/3 stop but the onscreen
display will show the closest 1/3-stop aperture value.
NOTES
You can use the [w Other Functions] > [Custom Function] > [Control Dial Dir.] or [Grip Ctrl Dial Dir.] setting
(A 125) to change the direction of the adjustment when you turn the control dial on the camcorder or on the
grip unit, respectively.
If you set an assignable button to [Iris +] or [Iris -] (A 113), you can press the button to respectively open up
or close the aperture.
Remote Operation Using Wi-Fi Remote
After completing the necessary preparations (A 49), you can adjust the aperture value remotely from a Wi-Fi-
enabled device using the Wi-Fi Remote application.
1 On the camcorder, set [~ Camera Setup] > [Iris] > [Mode] to [Manual] (A 70).
This is only necessary when using a lens compatible with automatic aperture. For other lenses, [Manual] is
the default setting and cannot be changed.
2 Press the current aperture value on the Wi-Fi Remote screen.
3 Select the desired aperture value from the list.
You may need to scroll up/down to see all the available values.
Alternatively, you can press IRIS [+] to open the aperture or IRIS [-] to close the aperture in 1/8-stop
increments. (Onscreen displays will show the closest 1/3-stop aperture value.)
The selected value will be displayed on the Wi-Fi Remote screen and will be applied on the lens.
