The camera does not focus using the auto
focus (AF) setting.
Autofocus does not focus well sometimes due to reasons such as distance from the subject and
the environment in which you are photographing.
Check the solutions as follows according to the conditions or environment.
Make sure you are not too close to the subject.
The minimum distance from the subject in which you can photograph (minimum
focusing distance) is determined by the individual lens.
Photographs will not be in focus if you attempt to shoot at less than the minimum
focusing distance. Please shoot at the focus distance or farther away from the subject.
Minimum focusing distance is noted on the front or side of the lens.
Example: For SAL1855 (DT 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 SAM), minimum focusing distance is
noted as "1.25m/0.82ft" in meters (m) and feet (ft).

  • Page 2 8. Switch the lens or camera body to "MF" (manual focus), and adjust the focus manually.  If photograph photographs come out with only part in focus By narrowing down the camera aperture, you can shoot with the entire photograph in focus with little blurring in the background or foreground.
  • Page 3 Making AF fine adjustments with lenses of other manufacturers may affect the adjustment values of your Sony, Minolta, and Konica Minolta lenses. Do not use the function with lenses of other manufacturers. If using lenses of the same specifications and Sony, Minolta, and Konica Minolta lenses, AF fine adjustments cannot be set individually.
  • Page 4 What is the difference between an A-mount and an E-mount? For interchangeable lens cameras produced by Sony, there are two types of mount standard: A- mount and E-mount. The mount is the part that joins the camera’s body and the lens. To shoot images, attach the lens to your camera’s lens mount and let the lens and the body recognize each other.
  • Page 5  About A-mount lenses and E-mount lenses Sony provides A-mount lenses and E-mount lenses that meet each mount standard for camera bodies. The name of an A-mount lens starts with “SAL” while the name of an E- mount lens starts with “SEL.”...

  • Page 7 NOTE: Some Lensbaby lenses may attach to the camera body. However, Lensbaby lenses do not communicate electronically with the camera body and cannot be recognized. Sony does not support the use of Lensbaby lenses. 2. Check if the lens is connected properly.
  • Page 8 Lens release button position (NEX-7) 3. Turn off the camera. 4. Remove the lens from the body of the camera. 5. Examine the pins on the body of the camera that connect to the lens. If there is dirt on the contacts of the body or the lens, the camera body may not recognize the lens due to attachment failure.
  • Page 9 Body contacts Ensure the pins are not bent. Ensure nothing is covering or obstructing the pins. IMPORTANT: If the pins on the camera body are bent, then Service will be required. 6. If there are no bent pins or other obstructions, reattach the lens to the camera body. 7.
  • Page 10 Renowned G Lens background bokeh Beautiful background bokeh is synonymous with the G Lens name, and it can really make the subject stand out. Individual calibration of each lens ensures optimum compensation for spherical aberration, resulting in smooth rendering of edges without a trace of ugly "nisen bokeh".
  • Page 11 Precise, quiet focus for stills and movies Two focus groups in a floating focus configuration are driven by an innovative DDSSM (Direct Drive Super Sonic wave Motor) system for smooth, precise positioning of the relatively heavy lenses that make full-frame macro magnification possible. This system is remarkably quiet, and is ideal for animal or insect photography as well as movies.
  • Page 12 Fast auto/manual focus switching If you have to remove your eye from the viewfinder to switch between auto and manual focus you're likely to lose the shot. With this lens the focus ring, where your hand normally rests while shooting, simply slides back and forth to switch between manual and auto focus. A non-slip surface ensures reliable operation.
  • Page 13  Be sure not to turn off the camera while resetting is in progress.  If you are using a model that supports PlayMemories Camera Apps, when you perform Initialize or Setting Reset, applications downloaded to the product may be uninstalled. To use these applications again, reinstall them.
  • Page 14 The RESET button on lens-style cameras is near the Multi Terminal. 2. Use a pointed object (like a ballpoint pen) to press and hold the RESET button for 2-3 seconds. 3. After 2-3 seconds has elapsed, release the RESET button. 4.
  • Page 15 Great for movies as well as stills In some ways, lens requirements for moviemaking are more demanding than for stills. Sony goes the extra mile to ensure that lenses that will be used with movie-capable cameras will deliver the necessary performance.
