Using a conversion
lens
Using a conversion lens (not supplied) will
allow you to shoot with enhanced wide
or telephoto effects. For details, please
consult the operating instructions supplied
with your conversion lens.
• Always turn off the camera before
mounting or removing the conversion
lens. Failure to do so may result in
damage or other malfunction.
•
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.
