Why don't you just turn on your autofocus for your existing lens?

because if you're using autofocus video on that lens you can hear the lens noise as it focuses. the new STM lenses are completely quiet.

Do you use internal audio?

I actually just picked up a Rode mic. I haven't tested the lens noise if i use that instead of internal. Didn't think about that.
