A6600 not auto focussing

jinx1502 — Mon, 11 Apr 2022 11:19:37 GMT

When I partially depress the shutter in any of the AF modes, nothing happens! The camera just doesn't focus at all. No green dot, no flashing green dot, no green squares/indications on the screen showing focus areas. The camera is not in manual mode, neither is the lens. I've always had Sony cameras and I've had the A6600 since May 2020 so am pretty confident in using it. I've been through the manual and checked all the settings etc. I also have a David Brusch A6600 manual - nothing in there either. Getting a bit panicky now so can anyone help me please?

Hi @jinx1502 🙂

You probably have but I have to ask if you've tried resetting the camera?

I hadn't - when I posted message. 5 minutes later I did and it worked, thank you anyway for taking the time to respond. Resetting did work but I still don't know why it stopped focussing. Hay ho
