  1. Once use attaches the lens camera power – ON the camera, the Mount detection unit gets activated.
  2. Once the camera detects the type of Lens used in the camera, it opens up it’s dedicated user-interface options for particular lens mount.

From the flow-chart below you can understand the mode of operation of a Hybrid Mount camera once the lens is attached to it.
