Sony A7Riii AF Micro Adjust

graytaffy — Thu, 21 Jul 2022 12:33:40 GMT

Hello. I am trying to check the AF of my camera when a Sony FE 24-105 G OSS lens is attached. In camera setting 1 page 8/14 AF Micro Adj >> AF Adjustment Set - On >> Amount - I get a message on the camera screen "! Lens Invalid with this lens". Both lens and camera are new. Does anyone know why this happens? I carried out this exercise on my A77ii camera with a number of lenses and I had no problem.

Hey, the AF Micro Adj allows you to adjust the auto-focusing position and register an adjusted value for each lens when using A-mount lenses with an LA-EA2 or LA-EA4 Mount Adaptor. The lens that you're currently trying to use is an E-mount lens, that's why it's coming up with that error.

Hi. I bought the A7Riii camera and adaptor LA-EA54 from Wex store in Edinburgh during an exhibition where I spoke to a Sony representative and advised to buy the LA-EA5 adaptor to use my A-mount lenses. Apparently, Sony has stopped manufacturing the LA-EA4 adaptor and the adaptor I have greys out the micro adjust option in the camera menu. The e-mount lens I have works fine and Wex explained the reason why the micro adjust option is greyed out while using the lens and I accept that. Thanks for getting back to me on this issue.

Oh cool to know that! Better mark the answer as resolved so others can find it easily if they're facing the same issue, cheers.
