How should I configure my A7 II / A7R II to switch from autofocus to manual focus and back?
Although this can be done via the (Android) configuration app, it is best to assign a Custom Button to do this. Choose Menu > Custom Settings (Gear Icon) > 7 > Custom Key Settings and assign AF/MF Ctrl Toggle to a button. FM member d-intrigue suggested using the Center Button whilst others prefer to use the AF/MF button.
The Techart PRO has a Parking feature which determines what the adapter does when switching from AF to MF mode:
F36 parks the adapter at infinity focus
F40 parks the adapter at closest focus
F45 parks the adapter at the current focus
To implement this, set the aperture on the camera to the desired value, take a picture, then set the aperture on the camera back to F2.
Do you have to toggle between MF/AF or can you just leave it in AF and to prefocus/tweak focus manually?
Thanks for the work!
