electric diaphragm Explanation: This would be my uninformed guess, it must be electrically driven ("Motor-") and it is a kind of diaphragm which allows a variable amount of light to pass through. But maybe someone als has a better idea. |

motorized aperture Explanation: "This is done with a motorized aperture that adjusts itself according to the amount of light that's available in the environment."
