Chapter 5 Adjustments and Settings
You can see the iris sensitivity trimmer when
removing the gum cap on the front of the lens driving
unit. Use a mini-screwdriver to turn the trimmer. If
you turn it clockwise, the sensitivity increases, and if
you turn it counterclockwise, the sensitivity decreases.
It is recommended that you confirm the iris sensitivity
after replacing the lens.
For more information, refer to the operating instructions for
the lens (or consult the lens maker).
Macrophotography
Use the macro function when the subject is short from
the front of the lens.
1 Bring the lens up to the subject so that the image is
the required size.
2 Move the focus ring to the closest focus position.
3 Press the M button and turn the MACRO ring fully
in the direction shown by the arrow.
4 Move the ZOOM selector to the MANU. position,
and turn the zoom ring to focus the image.
Ending close-up shooting
Return the MACRO ring to its original position (turn
fully in the opposite direction to the arrow in the
figure).
Reducing the size of the image
After completing steps 1 to 4 above, if you wish to
reduce the size of the image, turn the MACRO ring
back slightly, then use the zoom ring again to focus the
image.
Designating the lens
You have to designate the lens number according to
the types of your lens.
If the number is not designated properly, strange color
may appear on the upper and lower of the screen when
shooting a white subject.
Set the number in advanced menu page 4 (page 89)

4 Set up the data with Sony dealer.
If you use the lens that is not mentioned above, set the
lens number as follows:
• When using the lens without the extender, set it to 1.
• When using the lens with the extender, set it to 2.
• When using the lens with the ratio converter, set it to 2.
You can also set it more precisely at Sony dealer,
according to your lens. In this case, set it to 4.
Adjusting the Iris Sensitivity
You usually need not adjust the iris sensitivity because
lenses are equipped with iris sensitivity adjustment
function.
In auto iris mode, if hunting or response delay
happens, adjust the iris sensitivity using the iris
sensitivity trimmer.

or IRIS GAIN is indicated.)
