Yes, you are able to switch between manual and auto focus on this lens by sliding the ring on the lens forward for auto focus or back for manual focus.

AutoFocus was fine. Some circumstances, e.g., bird watching, require manual focus.

yes. there is a manual focus option. I played with a couple times but don't love it (but I'm used to a DSLR and manual focus)

It definitely has auto focus, with many different options, both in stills and movies. But you can also set it to Manual focus, and there is a ring on the barrel of the lens you turn to focus with rather than some lever you push back and forth. Same with the zoom - you rotate the lens barrel to adjust zoom length. In that way, it's much more like an SLR rather than a point and shoot camera.

Absolutely, it has a full manual mode in addition to modes that allow 1 adjustment like aperture or shutter speed, and yes you can manually focus.

No, it does not. Not having this & Manual Focus is about the only things that make this a "Bridge" camera instead of a dirt cheap DSLR IMHO...

It does auot meter, but it will not auto focus. Focus is done is done with the telescope.

It automatic mode the camera focuses fine. I haven't tried it in other modes yet, but if you have an autofocus lens I imagine it will focus for you fine.

It does. It has, like many, a "flower" setting which allows you to get right up close. Exactly how close I'm not sure. The technical specs probably tell you how close you can get before autofocus doesn't work. (which is what happens when you get too close)

I am not sure but I would be surprised if it didn't. It will not autofocus. I never use any "auto settings" so I don't know what works and what doesn't in terms of electronic features. They me closer focus and that's all I wanted. Based on my usage they are great.

Yes, it does auto-focus. I now use it on a micro four-thirds camera which requires that I use an adaptor. This slows the auto-focus.

No. Yes can choose to focus manually or automatically. There are different options available at a quick turn of a dial.

Antonio:no,it don't autofucus.You have to set aperture in the lens and then manual phocus(you have the advantage of focus peaking).The camera has to be set in speed priority and no-lens option.I used it in a Nex 6 and Nex 7.Luck.

It screws on to the front of your lens. There are adapters for different lens diameter sizes.Yes it does work in auto - both auto focus and auto shooting mode.

Yes this lens has auto-focus. I have used it on one outing to the Miracle Garden in Dubai and it was awesome. I have been trying to get a good solution to macro photography. I have tried extension tubes, close-up filters and decided to spend the money and try a macro lens. I am glad that I did. This lens in my opinion was well worth the money.

No, it has no autofocus . It is manually focused. But it does do exposure thru the lens with your F-1
