Lens support for Fast Hybrid AF
The following lenses support phase-detection AF but initially require a firmware update (available from the Sony website) if not
included as kit lens with NEX-6: E 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OSS, E 55-210mm F4-6.3 OSS, E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS, Sonnar T* E 24mm
F1.8 ZA, E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS (does not require firmware update).
Other lenses can be used with NEX-6 but will employ only contrast-detection AF. Additional E-mount lenses will support phase-
detection AF in the future.
