ABSTRACT:
An iris and shutter arrangement for a camera, particularly a CCD camera, in which a first liquid crystal display is formed of a plurality of concentric annuli of liquid crystal material and a second liquid crystal display is provided as a further plurality of coaxial annuli each of which overlies the space separating one annuli from the next in the first display. The first display also includes a relatively clear central circular area, defining the smallest aperture desired, which is covered by a circular area of liquid crystal material in the second display. The annuli in both cases are continuous save for breaks along a line forming a path for control conductors deposited upon the faceplates of the two displays.
