¿Is the Pixel TE 325 Flash Hot shoe Adapter for Sony Alpha, compatible and works well with Alpha A77 model? Or the Seagull SC-5 Hot Shoe Adapter is the adecuate
206746
Dear Carlos H:If I'm not mistaken the Hot Shoe Adapter I have is the Seagull SC-5 and it works perfectly on my Sony Alpha 100. I believe, if Sony hasn't changed its hot shoe contact, the Adapter gonna be compactible with the more modern models. The non dedicated flash units I have are the superb Vivitar 285 HV and so far the Adapter has been sailing in placid waters. I only hope the Vivitar units are not too strong for it. May it function as perfectly with all newer Sony models!

it "should" as all the Alphas have the same shoe - but be sure your flash is a low trigger current flash - I burned out my adapter with a Metz 60CT-5...

This Flash needs the Sony ADPAMA Shoe Adapter to work with the A77, this flash has a model that is made for the A77 (Sony Alpha HVL-F43AM is made for the A77) for use with-out an adapter

I'm not familiar with the hotshoe on the a5100,does it have the funky Minolta style shoe, or does it look like a normal Canon style? If it looks like the Canon style the adaptor won't work.

Sony/minolta has a brand specific flash shoe which is very different from most cameras.... there is an adapter for nex to regular shoe http://www.amazon.com/Sony-ADPAMA-Shoe-Adapter-Black/dp/B0097DFS2G/ref=pd_sim_e_15.... awkward and still won't work with any of the advanced functions on other flashes like TTL...

I have had no experience with the a77But it works very well with my nex7 which uses the same hot shoe

Sorry, I do not know - I use a NEX7 and it works great - lots of light.. I do know that it will work with the "Sony" hot shoe - So, if you have a Sony hot shoe you're set - but if you have a Standard hot shoe - then you'll need the adapter for Sony to Standard - they are fairly inexpensive - I got one for less than $15.00 - and now do not need it.. hope this helps..

They work on my Sony A7 without a hot-shoe adapter. I'm not sure if there is a difference between the A7 and A77 hot-shoe's though.

In theory you can use an adapter sold by Sony so you could use the HVL-F58AM on the newer hot shoe found on the latest Sony cameras, but I never tried it.

I don't know whether it will work with the NEX7 or not. I have a Quantaray QB-350A flash which I want to use off-camera with my Sony A-100 and my A-57. I have tried it with this SMDV (SAFE SYNC) hot shoe converter and also with several others. It does not work with any of them. I don't know if there may be a voltage incompatibility or what's wrong. It does work well with my old film cameras. The only other flash I have is dedicated to the Sony hot shoe on the camera, and it works fine on both cameras. So, I don't think my problem is the SMDV hot shoe. It may work for you depending on what flash you use it with. I don't know whether it will work with the NEX7 or not.

Hi Heriberto, your Sony a3000 uses multi-interface shoe, whereas this Sony ADPMAA is an adapter for multi-interface to auto-lock shoe. It will definitely work. -Ely

The adaptor was designed for the Sony compact flash with a different shoe contacts to an ISO standard hot shoe on NEX-6 and 7. I believe the NEX-5 will accept an external flash or optical LED finder with a different interface.

With the appropriate adapter for the a6000 it will work. I place the Meike MK-SH21 or the more expensive Sony ADP-MAA adapter into my a6000 hotshoe. Then I place my Pixel TF-325 or my more expensive Sony ADP-AMA adapter into the Meike adapter. The Yongnuo then clicks into the second adapter and works perfectly. Without the adapters, the metal plate on the Yongnuo, once inserted into the a6000 hotshoe, seems to bridge the multi interface a6000 contacts and the flash will not fire. I can assure you the use of the two stacked adapters works quite well, and less expensively than the two Sony adapters. With the appropriate adapter for the a6000 it will work.

Reynaldo according to Sony Style website compatibility page it is compatible with the Alpha's. It makes a big difference in the sound of videos. If you have a Mic Plug on your camera shouldn't be a problem.

That is correct. The NEX-7 has the old style hot shoe. This version has the new MultiInterface Hot Shoe (MI). They sell this same product with the old style auto-lock fitting... But, Sony is moving all their cameras to the new style MI shoe. You might be better off with an adapter. Your next camera from Sony (maybe NEX-8 or something) will have the MI shoe. That is the direction everything is moving.

No adapter for NEX-7.It requires an adapter for A-99 and NEX-6. The flash has the Minolta/Sony ADI connection at the b8ottom. Sony has now changed A-99 and NEX-6 to a standard hotshoe with front accessory connections.

Any camera that does NOT have the standard hot shoe ie: [____] and has the "backwards" hot shoe ie: ]___[ requires this adapter. It will add about an inch to the height of the hot shoe accessory you connect. I believe the a77 was the first Sony Camera to have the standard hot shoe.
