E-Mount Interchangeable Lens System
The NEX-EA50UH incorporates the Sony E-mount
interchangeable lens system, which enables auto focus,
auto exposure, and stabilization during video shooting.
With its short flange back distance, it is possible to attach
not only established A-mount lenses via the optional
LA- EA2 lens mount adapter, but also an unrivalled
choice of other-brand lenses using third-party adapters.
LA-EA2 Mount Adaptor-compatible
The NEX- EA50UH can attach an A-mount lens via the
optional LA-EA2 A-mount-to-E-mount adaptor. Thanks to
Translucent Mirror Technology in the LA-EA2, auto focus
and one-push auto iris functions are available during
motion picture shooting with most A-mount lenses*.

Translucent Mirror Technology
Translucent Mirror Technology delivers responsive auto focus
with A-mount lenses.
Translucent mirror
An innovative translucent mirror simultaneously and
continuously transmits light from the lens to both the
CMOS image sensor and AF sensor.
AF sensor
Light from the mirror is continuously transmitted to
the precision TTL phase detection AF sensor for

Variable Shooting Styles
The unique design of the NEX-EA50UH further adds to the camcorder’s versatility.
When the shoulder pad is extended, it enables the user to balance the camcorder
on their shoulder giving added stability for long-duration shooting. Alternatively,
when the shoulder pad is returned to the original position, the camcorder
becomes compact enough to use in various handheld styles, allowing the user
to capture a variety of shots where space is limited.
Power Zoom Lens
The NEX- EA50UH camcorder comes with the newly developed SELP18200 18-200
mm 11X powered-zoom lens (F3.5 -6.3). It features auto focus, continuous variable
iris, and Optical SteadyShot® image stabilization with Active Mode, making it
ideal for shooting moving images. It is electronically controlled by the zoom
rocker lever on the camcorder grip and the camera handle, and also controlled
by the RM-1BP Remote Commander® (optional accessory). Film-makers can
achieve a constant zoom speed and smooth slow zoom, both of which can be
difficult to accomplish with manual zoom lenses.
Digital Zoom Function
Thanks to the NEX-EA50UH’s 16.0 megapixel sensor it is possible to perform 2x
digital zoom without perceivable degradation, using fixed high quality digital
zoom function, ensuring you never miss a shot in fast-paced environments. Up to
2X electric zoom with smooth variable speed can be conveniently controlled via
a zoom rocker lever located on the camcorder grip and the camera handle,
and also controlled by the RM-1BP Remote Commander (optional accessory).
