nex-vg10

Sony has announced a firmware update for the NEX-VG10 camcorder that adds autofocus for Sony A-Mount SAM and SSM lenses.  The NEX-VG10 can accept Sony’s DSLR A-Mount lenses courtesy of the LA-EA1 adapter, which has previously required manual focus operation only.  However, this new firmware update will allow autofocus communication through the adapter.

The firmware update is available via Sony UK’s website.
