How to Read It

  • Baseline = what you set on the 14mm.
  • Adjustment = how much to open/close the 45–150mm to match the baseline T-stop.
  • “Open ~⅓ stop” means make the iris just a bit wider than the same f-number on the 14mm to compensate for light loss.
  • “Same” means you can match directly — both lenses’ transmission is close enough at that f-stop.
