5. Instruccions de funcionament

The 7artisans 25mm F1.8 is a fully manual lens, requiring manual adjustment of both focus and aperture.

5.1 Enfocament manual

• To adjust focus, rotate the focus ring (the ring closer to the camera body) until your subject appears sharp in the viewfinder or on the LCD screen.
• Many modern mirrorless cameras offer focus peaking and magnification features to assist with precise manual focusing. It is highly recommended to enable these features for best results.
• The focus distance scale (in feet and meters) on the lens can be used for zone focusing or pre-focusing.

5.2 Ajust de l'obertura

• The aperture ring (the outer ring) allows you to control the amount of light entering the lens and the depth of field.
• Rotate the aperture ring to select your desired f-stop, ranging from F1.8 (widest aperture) to F16 (narrowest aperture).
• The lens features 12 diaphragm blades, which contribute to a smooth and pleasing bokeh (background blur) at wider apertures.

5.3 Configuració d'exposició

Since this is a manual lens, you will need to set your camera to Manual (M) mode or Aperture Priority (A) mode. In Aperture Priority mode, you set the aperture on the lens, and the camera will automatically select the appropriate shutter speed. In Manual mode, you control both aperture and shutter speed, and ISO.
