CLEVER BIT CT MECHANISM.
The Iris Diaphragm Attachment for
Camera Lenses--Manner Of
Its Construction.

BY the recent death of it's in
ventor attention is directed to Il
convenient attachments sometimes
made TO cameras and microscopes
called the Iris diaphragm" An
ordinary diaphragm, or stop, is a
thin metal plate with a round hole
in the center. Light is admitted
through the aperture, and, as it is
often desirable to vary the
amount of light, it has been Gus
tonlary to equip cameras with sew
eral adjustable diaphragms, each
having hole Of different size
from the other. To remove one
diaphragm and substitute anoth.
er is a bothersome task. In an iris
diaphragm the size OF the hole
can be varied at the will of the op-
orator, and without altering it's
shape. This, whether large or
small, remains round, just as the
pupil OF the eye does, whether
shrinking or dilating. The latter
ls q hole in little membrane
called the iris, and is controlled
automatically. But q diaphragm.
Is composed OF metal, and its i'm

truly wonderful. The expansion
and contraction is very much more
extensive with this piece OF mech
anism than in the eye. Tie hole
may Ok reduced 20 & diameter OF
sixteenth Of an Inch and enlarged
TO whole inch lin the stage Of IA
microscope, aud even to two inch
es in large cameras.
The precise manner In VII ch
this mechanism is constructed
cannot be explained readily. 1t
may be said, however, that the
diaphragm does not consist OF a
single plate, but something like
20. These overlap each Other ard
can be moved sirnultaneopsly by
pressing a tiny lever or by the en-
ployment of other means. Each
OF the plates Is pivotel out near
the circumference Of the brass
tube Ia which they are mounted,
and the piyots Oh which they move
are placed at equal intervals all
the way around the circle. The
movement is either toward or
away from the center. No nne who
