5.7.13Ramp speed / compensation max. shutter angle

The camera speed is continuously adjusted within the predefined limit values over a pre-defined period of time after the RAMP button is pressed in the camera run (master value: Camera speed). The mirror shutter angle is automatically adjusted by the WRC-1 to compensate the exposure. If the adjustment range of the shutter angle is insufficient for the given end value, the rest will be compensated for by the aperture of the lens. In this case, the aperture proportion is evenly distributed over the entire compensation range.

The first line of the main menu shows the automatically calculated value of the shutter angle and the symbol ‘F’ to indicate the iris control. The second line shows the current camera speed.

The ‘PROG’ symbol indicates that a time-controlled ramp function has been selected.

By pressing the SET button, the currently adjusted T-stop can be shown in the first display line. The display shows full T-stops followed by the tenth of a T-stop.

Example: T-stop 2.8 plus half a T-stop is shown as 2.8_5. The tenths of a T-stop are linearly divided between the two full T-stop positions.
