Advanced still image shooting
Notes on using the Sony
VCL-DEH17VA telephoto end
conversion lens
• Set the zoom to the T (telephoto) side. Moving
the zoom to the W (wide) side may cause the
lens shadow to appear or make it diffi cult to
focus.
• When shooting with the NightShot function,
the infrared rays may be blocked by the lens.
We recommend using the Sony HVL-IRM
infrared light.
• When shooting with the NightFraming
function, use both the Sony HVL-F32X
fl ash and the Sony HVL-IRM infrared light.
However, note that the image may gain a
reddish tint.
Using the lens hood
Attaching the optional lens hood
obscures unnecessary light and prevents
deterioration of your images caused by
glare.
For details, please consult the operating
instructions supplied with your lens hood.
• When using the built-in fl ash, the light from
the built-in fl ash may be blocked, causing the
lens shadow to appear. We recommend using
the Sony optional external fl ash.
• Also, the hologram AF or infrared ray
functions may be affected by use of the lens
hood.
