When using a lens directly mounted on the camera:

  • Angle of tripod mount needs to be adjusted accordingly to attach lens on camcorder body.
  • Sliding the Focus Mode switch to MF position will change the focus mode setting, but on-screen (LCD monitor /Viewfinder) focus mode display will not change.
  • Optical SteadyShot setting on lens will switch on/off the function, but the setting is not reflected to on-screen display (LCD monitor / viewfinder) nor recorded in EXIF data.
  • Focus hold button of the lens does not work.
  • When the Focus Mode switch is set to MF while AF is selected at body side, focus mode is manual but focus distance is not displayed. (AF will not work as well.)
  • Even if the focus-range setting switch is set to near zone, the shooting focus range will be the same as Full
  • When the autofocus mode is set to something other than AF-C and the amount of focus movement is large until the focus is achieved, sometimes the exposure is incorrect after focus is achieved. The correct exposure can be obtained by pressing the shutter button halfway again or using AEL again.
  • Exif lens names will not be recorded correctly.

When using a teleconverter lens:
