Diafragma beheer

The lens features an aperture ring for manual control of the diaphragm. The aperture setting influences the depth of field and the amount of light entering the camera.

  • Rotate the aperture ring to select your desired f-stop (e.g., f/1.4, f/2, f/4, f/8, f/16).
  • A wider aperture (smaller f-number like f/1.4) allows more light and creates a shallower depth of field, ideal for portraits.
  • A narrower aperture (larger f-number like f/16) allows less light and creates a greater depth of field, suitable for landscapes.
