It's been awhile since I last used one of these so maybe someone can chime in here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I2Jg6J3UxY Is this normal? The autofocus itself seems to be perfect and accurate. It is quick as well. Dont worry mine sounds the same when focussing at something less than MFD. Sony A7RII | Sony A7S

I know the clunky type noise at the beginning of the video, but there are times in that video where it sounds like marbles clicking or something which is weird.

The clicking happened to mine too yesterday. It came when the AF was not really focussing and searching forth and back so i think thats normal too. Sony A7RII | Sony A7S
