XH A1 Iris ring help!

[jtclark]

Hey all,

I'm using a XH A1 and I'm having issues with the iris ring. Basically it doesn't work. I want to shoot in manual mode and the iris stays stuck on 4.8. If I place it into one of the auto modes the iris will drop down to 1.6. So I know that the iris is operating, it just can't be manually adjusted. Even in TV mode if I turn on the exposure lock, I can't adjust the iris. Any suggestions would be a big help.

Thanks,

Jason

I have the same exact problem. Did you ever figure this out? It seems so weird because the zoom and focus rings work fine, and everything works in Auto...

After doing some more reseach apparently its a problem that can only be fixed by sending it back. It's my friends camera and he hasn't done it yet. I've gone through every possible menu/setting and it still doesn't work.
