Mount Adaptor

Using the Mount Adaptor LA-EA1 (sold separately), you can attach an A-mount lens to
your camcorder. For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the Mount
Adaptor.

• When an A-mount lens is attached, you cannot use the auto focus function. You may not be able to use

certain A-mount lenses. For the compatibility of a particular A-mount lens, visit the Sony web site in
your area, or consult your Sony dealer or local authorized Sony service facility.

• The continuous shooting speed of still images will be slower.
