Compatibility with La-EA3/4 Adapter for A-mount lenses.

I was so thrilled when I came across the App and its absolutely brilliant. So firstly thank you!

I have found a slight issue when using the A-mount adapters however. I'm not sure if this is a limitation due to adapting the lenses or just a bug. The app loads fine and you can set the closest focus point. However it does not let you set the farthest point it simply doesn't respond.

Looking at how the adapted lenses behave in manual focus makes me think it may actually be an issue with the adapter as the manual focus assist does not trigger.

If there is any possibility of making it work that would be awesome but I figured I'd just leave this up here to anyone else who may be having the same dilemma.

Thanks much!

having the same issue withthe LA-EA4
have not tried it with any other manual focus/legacy lenses as yet

i too hope this can be resolved

Tried this with my legacy lenses on the A7R2 but it does not work.
There is a solid green line from the right icon to the left icon.
It does ask to focus and press the Centre button for minimum and then maximum but then it just hangs and nothing else.

Also tried this on my NEX 5R. It just bricks the camera.

I am able to get the camera working again and the same thing happens.

Some help on both of these would be great, otherwise I have to do this the old fashion way- manually using peak focusing on both cameras.

I have also tried my only native emount lens, which is really the only way to use this, same results.

Haven't tried with any of my Canon lenses and their adapters as yet.

Not working with adapted Canon RF lenses either

So I finally got this working with one of my Emount lenses, but, still have not had any luck with Amount lenses.
I have the 2 icons on the screen for minimum and maximum, but no bar in between showing up when using the lens in manual focus mode to set the points.
Anybody had any luck with this?
