FW 1.3 Iris Button Behaviour

PostSat Apr 27, 2013 2:03 pm

The iris button in FW 1.3 appears to be doing averaging when set to rec709 (Video), and 'Expose to the right' (No pixel clipped) in log (Film) mode.

Confirmed?

I believe John Brawley has mentioned that is the way it is intended to work so not a problem.

Iris behaviour has always worked this way, depending on if you use FILM or VIDEO.
