matching Z280 and FX6

[Tom Van den Berghe]

I always go for a preset. It's too difficult for me to white balance on stage.

So I asked now which lights there are using the most. In the 2 stage events I filmed this week
it was mostly 3200K and 4000K. It seems to work good when looking at the footage.

But the biggest problem I have is the shutter speed. I push direct menu and scroll to the shutter speed for manual control. It was on 1/100 (pal country here) and the diafragma was mostly between F2.8 and F6.

There was sometimes much less light (bethroom scene) so I scrolled the side wheel quicly to shutter 1/50
to avoid much of gain kicking in. My unmanned FX6 was on 1/50 in low base and there it mostly F2.8 - 4.5 when I sometimes checked it.

I read here somewhere on the forum that the Z280 can go quite soft when going above F4 aperture...

So how do you control this? I don't think I will have to use the variable nd for stage show?

I hope someone can help me out how to shoot indoor when switching manual shutter to control iris.
Outside no problem with the variable nd filter.
