Ya, it depends on the lens. Usually - it's just very very strong vignetting.

The A900 actually detects that you have an crop-frame lens on and will automatically only use a crop frame sized portion of the sensor. Only thing is when you look through the viewfinder - there's a box that shows where the crop frame picture is being cut off, making it hard to frame pictures properly.
