Memo

  • Settings can be adjusted separately for videos and still images.
  • When zoomed to the telephoto end, setting the aperture to the minimum value (F1.2) does not stop it down all the way. In this case, the aperture value is set according to the zoom and indicated in yellow. Set the zoom to the wide angle end to enable the aperture to be stopped down all the way.
  • The larger the aperture value, the darker the subject appears.
