Attaching the Lens
Attach a proper lens to the camera's body.
When you use one of the following lenses with the e/y, all
the camera’s exposure modes will be available.
(a) DA, DA L, D FA, FA J lenses
(b) Lenses with an Aperture s (Auto) position, when used in the
s position
1
Check that the camera is turned off.
2
Remove the body mount cover
(1) and lens mount cover (2).
Be sure to put the lens down with the
lens mount side facing upward to
protect the lens mount from damage
after removal.
3
Align the Lens mount index
(red dot) on the camera and the
lens, and secure by turning the
lens clockwise until it clicks.
After attaching, turn the lens
counterclockwise to check that the lens
is locked in place.
Turn the camera off before attaching or removing the lens to prevent
unexpected lens movement.
When lenses described in (b) are used in a position other than s, some
functions will be restricted. See “Notes on [19. Using Aperture Ring]” (p.241).
With factory default settings, the camera will not work with other lenses and
accessories. Set [19. Using aperture ring] in the [A Custom Setting 3] menu
to [Permitted] to use them. (p.241)
