Hi Sylvester, Sony SAL35F18 Lens is compatible on the Sony A99 Camera but is not recommended to be used on the camera due to their differing image circle size, which may affect light metering accuracy in certain shooting situations. -Vincent

Yes, it does. In fact I'm selling mine but ONLY because I'm moving to a full frame sensor. It's unfortunate b/c there's really not a sharper wide angle lens than this one. I'll miss it for sure!

Yes it does. Because of the DX crop factor of the D200 this lens makes a (equivalent) 36mm f/1.4 lens. It's beautiful.

I've to admit that I never this lens with all A7's series, I used with my NEX 7 which is APSC size of sensor. It is quite reluctant on AF at every light level but just press on when it show green blanket you'll get superb quality of the picture. It give impressive color, crisp detail. I never test the level of sharpness for each aperture range but as I used it on daily, it give a highly satisfy level of quality of the picture.

Yes it does, and will perfom better in a crop factor, de quality of the image will be sharper. Im happy with this lens.

Yes it does! That's what I have and I bought this lens. Works great just takes a bit longer to focus than other lens.

That is true. Lens for APS-C is not good enough for A99. 24-70/2.8 Zeiss are working great with A99 - I have A99, A900 and A77 and this is lens for full frame bodies. It is sharp, has very good contrast, images looks perfectly. It is my best lens at the moment. 16-50/2.8 has problem with working with light in the view, 24-70/2.8 is much better (look at my pictures, for example https://www.flickr.com/photos/jacekr/6050308354/ ).Best regards, Jacek.

Only with a free update from sony, and only with select lenses. A list can be found on sony's website

It should, since it is an A-mount SONY lens. (Congratulations on choosing a very nice standard lens, by the way!) This lens, I believe, was designed for the earlier, APS-C cameras SONY created such as the A55, A65, A77 and their older siblings. With this lens's relationship to their smaller sensor, you may see "fall-off" of image acuity around the edges of the bigger sensor found in your A99. That shouldn't be a problem and I would bet that, even if that did happen, it wouldn't take much to either eliminate the effect or adjust for it.

Yes, this is s full frame lens. And very easy to use on sony a99 with focus peaking.

The A77ii has a 1.5 X crop factor so the lens on this camera will act like a 105mm-315mm. I think the opposite to what you are suggesting.

I'm going to say it's a little overkill, but the lens is a great value. You'll get the cropping factor, but I think that's actually beneficial in this zoom range... with my a99, I often long for more zoom! I've also used it on my a77, and it does great. If you have more questions, do shoot 'em back!

The 200mm gives you more extra zoom than you would think. I probably do more shooting at that focal length than any other.

Both are nice cameras. I own a700 and a900, bought the a99, difficult to get used to. Totally different beast. If you get one, do not get rid of the 700 until you are convinced. Joe

I have the A77, so I can't speak about the A99 with certainty. The Sony version of the Metz 58 flash works perfectly with my A77 - no need for the adapter.
