So I've had to shoot in dark spaces recently, and for some reason the only manual adjustment I've been making is to the iris. But there's also the aperture setting I could play with, but I'm under the impression that changing the aperture can reduce my frame rate and make my video appear dream like. I'm wondering, how do you go about getting the maximum exposure in a dark space ( I don't mean pitch black or anything, but say a living room with only natural light). Which one, aperture or iris, do you tweak first and why? Any thoughts on how to best strike this balance are appreciated.
