Hi James, this Sony HVL-F20S flash uses smart accessory terminal and is compatible with Sony NEX-5N or NEX-5R. It is not compatible with your Sony a3000 (uses multi interface shoe). -Ely

I have a sony a300 and not sure it fits your sony. When I purchased mine it came from 47th street photo. They were a great resource for questions that I had. Their phone number is 800-998-2066. Hope that helps.

It fits perfect. I'm using it with my nex7 without any issue. All you have to do is place it on the hotshoe as a normal flash unit.

I don't have HVL-F42AM. But from what I learned that it should be working with the adapter. I have several flashes units which compatible with the old sony flash hotshoes. But none of them are working on A77 II which has "new" hot shoe. After put on the adapter, all of them are working with full functions.

I have SONY A65. It fits - but I found it very difficult to unlock from the shoe. Looks little cheap..

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

Yes, I have it on my Sony Nex-5T. It fits on the hot shoe. You cannot use the flash at the same time because it needs the shoe also. Works well in bright light when its hard to see the view screen and also makes framing the picture easy.

Looks like Sony SLT-A58 has similar hot shoe as NEX-6. In that case, yes the flash will fit your A58. Keep in mind, this is a manual flash, so it will not sync with your camera sync speed. It will trigger flash every time you press the shutter but some flash modes in camera may not work (rear-sync, front-sync, slow-sync, etc.)

if your canon take a standard external flash, it will fit, most if not all hot shoes are a standard size

If it has a standard hot shoe it should fit....it does not transmit any power or signal to a ttl flash....you'll need an external cable for anything that uses the camera metering system.

Probably. The mounting solutions are all pretty much identical. I have the as30 and it fits it perfectly

According to SONY information on the web the answer is yes. But I do not have a SONY a3000 to verify that.

Hello Photohub,No, for a Canon or any regular hot shoe flash you need this item: B005ODJ7P2

I had to send my Metz flash back as it did not fit onto my Sony a7r as advertised. The flash unit in the box did not match the picture of the shoe attachment on the box. I ended up spending extra for the Sony flash -- not a bad thing as the Sony flash is so much more solidly built.

It fits a standard hot shoe, so it should. I use it with a Canon Rebel T3, and it works perfectly. Going on three years now. Great value.

I used it with my Sony A300, but it would probably attach the same way. There is a a jack on the side of the camera that the included cable plugs in to. The receiver just hangs from the camera. Supposedly there is a way to mount it to the flash hot shoe, but I never figured out how to do it. Hanging from the camera allowed me to move it around for best reception. Yes, it does come with a cable. It is very well engineered.
