Sony sells two adapters. One does auto exposure only. The more expensive one does auto focus as well. Metabones and others do simple adapters too. I use the more expensive Sony (about $350), and it works very well.

You'll need the Sony LA-EA2 adapter, which enables full autofocus and automatic exposure control. It's just like usin your A-mount lens on a Sony DSLR, with one important drawback: there is no image stabilization. If you plan on shooting with a tripod, this will be no problem. But hand-holding this lens on the NEX-7 will be a challenge, at best.

I have a NEX-7 so guess they are similar. I have to go into the Drive mode in the Camera menu and set it to the IR commander mode. My guess is that you have to go into one of your camera's menus and program it to accept the IR Commander. Your user manual should tell you what you have to do. Or a nearby camera shop could also help. Hope this helped.

It works very well with my nex6 with no major or minor problems.But note that not all accessories that have same shoe as the A7 will function.

No, you need a lens adapter ring. Like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Mount-Adapter-NEX-5N-NEX-5-Camera/dp/B00FZUJLV4/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1425478244&sr=8-11&keywords=nex+lens+adapter+ring

Hi Sebastian, you can use the lens with the NEX6 with the use of an adapter. Thanks_Mitch

I'm sorry that I can't give a reliable answer. I called Sony about it while I had the lens in my possession and was told that it didn't apply to my NEX-7. Sony Customer service was quite helpful. I suggest trying them. Unless there is new stock at Amazon, my understanding is that you will likely have to send the lens to Sony for upgrade if yours is not the NEX-7 model.

I do not know about an adapter. I have the NEX-3. Sorry I cannot be of assistance. Might want to contact Sony.

Yes, I have this lens and the NEX-7 and it works fine. Make sure you have the latest Sony firmware update for the NEX-7 for optimal performance. The lens is a retractable style, in that it extends when the camera is turned on and retracts when the camera is turned off. The firmware update makes the lens retract much quicker when the camera is turned off.

The NexStar 130 SLT uses a 2" eyepiece so you would need an adapter as the camera is made for 1.25" eyepiece. You will also need a Windows or Mac computer as well of course.

maybe with an adaptor, this is similar to the sony A mount, nex use the sony E mount which is NOT directly compatible, best bet is to ask Sigma directly

If the powered 18-200mm servo lens is anything to go by, every model with NEX in its name will work with the lens as far as zoom, OS and AF are concerned. Full-frame models like the 7r will know to crop it since this is an APS-C lens. I would expect most models to require a firmware update for in-camera image correction (I don't know when that's coming).

It does not work with My nex7 either. It is probably deffective, perhaps out of sync.

This mounts directly onto the camera like any lens would. The only other thing you need is a lens with an M42 mount. When using this (or any) lens adapter with the NEX, you will also need to change one setting on the camera. Go to "Setup" and find "Release w/o Lens". This will tell the NEX to allow the shutter to open when it doesn't detect the lens. Most lens converters are like this one and don't have any electronics. They simply allow you to put a lens over the sensor. Because of that, you need to tell the camera to allow you to do that - which is what that setting does. Hope that helps!

Fotodiox adapters are very good - I use Minolta and Leica M-mount (purists may cringe at putting a Leica M lens on the Nex but they work just great!

You have to change some camera settings. Search for "how to use manual focus lens on nex5"

Why would you want this on a Nex-7, a camera with a great built-in viewfinder?!

I have the Sony A 7 with the Fotasy LM-Nex adapter and a Voigtlander F 1.4 40 mm lens-- works fine. Best,George
