The LA-EA1 will have AF with SAM/SSM lenses.

The LA-EA2 will have AF with SAM/SSM and screw-drive lenses.

Both allow you to set the aperture from the camera body.

Both allow you to frame the subject with the lens wide open although you may have set the aperture to F11. It will only stop down when you take the picture. (This is different from a third-party lens, where you have to manually turn the aperture ring before you take the picture.)

If it doesn't say SAM, SSM, USD, PZD or HSM anywhere on the lens, it is screw-drive.

Picture quality is the same, and it can focus to infinity.

The LA-EA2 has a translucent mirror so you lose about 1/3rd of a stop of light - going from say 1/60s to 1/50s, or 1/10s to 1/8s.

Unless the lens is a Sony E-mount with Optical SteadyShot, Tamron VC or Sigma OS, it will not be stabilized!
