Notes

  • AF Only available on Sony E, Nikon Z, and Canon EF. Manual focus: Canon RF and Leica L mount. Autofocus only starts from 1.5m to infinity. (Possible firmware update fixes this?)
  • Canon EF is significantly lighter, (484g), much shorter (88.4mm long)
  • Function button available for Sony E mount.
