Can you combine these two?

Last updated: September 2023

This is the short answer:

The camera and lens you have chosen cannot be combined. Here is a longer answer:

Lack of Autofocus

The lens supports autofocus but neither the camera nor the lens has a built-in autofocus (AF) motor. You as a photographer will not have the possibility to use autofocus to obtain a sharp image. Focusing manually will then be the only way to obtain sharpness.
