Is aperture control via camera or is it not possible? (asking specifically for A6000)

Yes, the diaphragm is controlled on Canon lens from the Sony A6000. It does auto focus, but very slow--I use it mostly on a canon 300 mm lens and basically it becomes manual focus.

Yes, If i remember correctly. I set the different shutter speed and aperture.

Yes, absolutely. It is equipped with full synchronization between the body and lenses trough the rings. So, that means you can use manual control of the aperture.

Based on my use of the camera, You can 'set' the aperture in both Aperture priority and Manual modes. Otherwise, the camera will choose the best to properly expose the shot. You can 'force' the aperture where you want it to go by adjusting the ISO, ND filter, etc... but if you are concerned primarily with aperture, you should probably be in A priority or Manual mode.

The RM-VPR1 wired remote does NOT properly control 18-105 PZ lens on the A6000. Zoom is very slow (90-120 sec full range) and is ERRATIC zoom. I have tried two lens and also the RMT-VPR1K infrared remote with the same results Kit 16-50 PZ lens works fine in both modes with both controllers. Sony has not provided an answer or solution!

Short answer is yes. But, the best advice is to start using it - start with allowing the camera to simply do the work for you and learn how its basic features work. I use the aperture-preferred mode a lot and the manual will help you decide on other settings. Finally, there are a lot of sites that will answer your questions on line as you progress -- enjoy, this is a gem of a camera.

Yes, limited functionality: no AF, no metering. Aperture can not be adjusted electronically. So if your lens doesn't have an aperture ring, you can't change the settings.

John,The first one I bought from here did not have that feature. I exchanged it with Photodiox directly and the adapter did adjust aperture. It is unclear to me how to get the "right" adaptor on the first try....Cheers.

This unit did not work on my A6000. It did not fire the flash at all... I don't know if an adapter will help, I found Gary Fong's advice on adapters not clear. I am currently using a Cowboy Studio wireless flash with no exposure controls, it's the best I can do...

Yes there is a AE-L/AF-L button you can access with your thumb. It has two wheels to change you F-stop and shutter speeds too.

Hi Allison, yes you can. Set the camera to either one of these settings, Aperture priority or Manual mode and set the aperture to the highest f stop (lowest number), also change the focus area to flexible spot to enable you to choose which area to focus on. Thanks_Mitch

Yes... *BUT* there is no automation here. No data pass-through to let the camera communicate with the lens and no way for the camera to adjust the aperture. You will be able to use it, but unless you have a lens that will let you adjust the aperture manually, you'll be stuck using it at the highest f-stop/lowest amount of light setting.

Hi VergueWe tried the Nikon 28-70 and it can not be control with the aperture ring only. The aperture can only be controlled by camera body. Thank you.C&W; lens

I just received one of these today. There is no autofocus on the D60 for this lens, so you have to set it on M. Also, if you want the aperature to be set by the camera, you must lock the aperature setting ring. I've only been playing with it for a few minutes, but I've noticed you cannot always open the aperature to f/2.8 using the camera controls; sometimes only f3.3.

Yes,when the camera is set to aperture priority, the camera will set the appropriate shutter speed for the correct exposure. This is how it works on my K20 Pentax Digital And for the one I use On my Nikon D800 Digital camera. Regards Dennis Dellis

Yes. But you don't necessarily have full control of aperture settings. But it works.
