Aperture setting unavailable
Heyo,
When using the RC_Camera in a FPP blueprint the aperture setting is greyed out,
no matter whether Auto Exposure Mode is on or off.
Anything I'm doing wrong here?

Hey, thanks for getting back to me.
No, I do in fact use a Cinema HighEnd Lens and Body, with Auto Exposure turned off,
attached to a capsule component in my player pawn blueprint.
Aperture can be adjusted on a CineCamera with identical settings for recording sequences, but like I said not when used as a player camera within a player blueprint.
Hey, thanks for getting in touch and welcome aboard!
Without knowing more information, my guess would be that you are using a camera with a lens, that has a fixed aperture. That is pretty common for very small lenses like action cameras, phones or drones. You can check, if that’s the case by trying it with a high end cinema camera. Then the aperture should be available.
If that wasn’t the problem or you have any further questions, let us know!
Ok, great that you already tested it against a default camera!
Then I need more information about your setup. Did you replace the camera in the First Person BP? Could you send me a screenshot of your BP and the changes? And you are talking about recorded sequences - are you talking about the sequencer or a different tool? Please send me also a screenshot in which window the aperture is greyed out. More information is always helpful to reproduce your problem.
Thank you!
