Autofocus function with A-mount lenses Upgrading Mount Adaptor LA-EA1 (sold separately) makes autofocus (Single-shot AF) possible when an A-mount SAM or SSM lens is attached to the camera. You can also use autofocus (Single-shot AF) in movie recording mode by pressing the shutter button halfway down. For information on upgrading the Mount Adaptor, please visit the Sony Support web site. http://www.sony.net/ Notes • You cannot use the AF illuminator when using an A-mount lens. • The autofocus speed will be slower compared to when an E-mount lens is attached. • The sound of the lens and the camera in operation may be recorded during movie recording. You can avoid this by selecting [Menu] t [Setup] t [Movie Audio Rec] t [Off]. • It may take a long time or may be difficult for the camera to focus, depending on the lens used or the subject. 7GB
