I just received my NEX-6 Monday. I bought it with the kit lens. I already have a NEX-5N so I know my way around most of the menu system. The only AF lens I used with the NEX-5N is the Zeiss 24/1.8. So far with the NEX-6, I've seen one issue unique to the NEX-6 and one common to both with the auto focus settings and I'm wondering if anyone else has seen these issues.
1. For the Autofocus area selection, I prefer the Flexible Spot setting. This selection worked fine on the 5N. On the 6, in use, this spot only shows up when the light levels are relatively high. When they're not AF brings up a large area that encompasses most of the center of the frame. This occurs with either AF lens.
2. For Autofocus Mode, I normally use AF-S Single Shot AF. However, this mode seems to behave pretty much like AF-C where the camera focuses continuously. This seems to also occur on the 5N. Am I missing something here?
What I'm hoping to find out for #1 is whether this particular body has a problem or is it a firmware problem? I'll probably call Sony tomorrow if I don't get any answers on here but I hope somebody can shed some light.
