Version II of this lens fixes Nex-7 purple fringing issue. A6000 has similar sensor size. Does A6000 work with this lens or should I get V2?

I never compared the two versions, I used the first edition only because it's more compact, light, less expensive, has built in shade what I really like. I use only on Fuji cameras without worries. I heard the version two also have purple fringing issues with some cameras but visible only on large images, also fringing is easy to fix with the latest softwares like Lightroom. I shoot almost exclusively B&W; so color fringing don't bother me so much. V2 might be more corrected but I can't tell.

I have two Nex-7 and a Nex-3 cameras and I have not noticed any "purple fringing" with this lens. My main issue with the lens is that, even stopped down to the max, it does not seem as sharp as it should be. I have a SONY 16mm f/2.8 Wide Angle and the Rokinon is no where as sharp as that lens. Maybe I am expecting too much. Don't get me wrong. I use and enjoy the Fish-eye FX this lens provides, soft or not.

I have a NEX 5R and have not noticed purple in the fringe. This is a great utility lens-unlimited creative opportunities. Normally shoot with Canon 5D mk2 and mk3; however, the Sony system is great for motorcycle adventures.

I have the original version on a NEX-7. I haven't noticed any purple fringing (chromatic aberration), nor have I gone looking for it. So no comments on that aspect. That aside, to answer your direct question, both the NEX-7 and the A6000 have APS-C size sensors, and E (not FE) lens mounts, so there should be no question that either the original version or the updated version will attach physically, and will have a large enough image circle to fully cover the sensor on either camera.

Hi, this Sony Stereo Microphone uses the Smart Accessory Terminal compatible for Sony NEX cameras like NEX-5N, NEX-5R or NEX-F3K. Your A6000 uses multi inface shoe. Currently Sony doesn't have the adapter for it. -Ely

I am an amateur photographer and do not plan on going to an FX sensor. I plan on shooting from both a monopod and free hand. I do enjoy having the best but only when it makes sense. I have not had much luck shooting my son's hockey games with my current lense and need the 2.8 to get the low light, high speed shots. A friend has the VI and she is able to get some great shots. That was the lens I was orignally looking at until this one came out. Can you point me to a site that has the comparison shots. In light of ths information, what would you go with. Thanks again for your response.

Hi, this Sony External flash uses Smart Accessory terminal like the one on Sony NEX-5N. However, the Sony A6000 uses multi interface shoe. This flash will not work on your camera A6000. -Ely

No, This is for Sony's A mount. The A6000 is an E mount camera. You will need to find a rear lens cap for Sony E Mount/NEX camera line.

I have an a6000 with the same kit lens. The SELP1650 max apperture @ 16mm F3.5 is sharper than the SEL16F28 @ F3.5. I think the kit lens OSS is helping give sharper results while the the SEL16F28 is just horrible at F2.8 to F5.0. I'm dissappointed with this lens. Stick with the kit lens otherwise maybe the Sony 20mm F2.8 is better.

Hi Davies Chisenga, Flash model HVL-F43AM is not compatible on your A6000 camera. Vincent

On the NEX 6 this lens has a focal length equivalent to 105-300mm on a full frame camera such as the a7r. I don't have a NEX 6, but it works beautifully on an a6000.

It will fit, but I would recommend against doing it. The lens is designed for the APS-C (cropped) format sensor used in the earlier NEX models. The A7 has a full frame sensor that is 1.5 times larger than the NEX models' sensor. Although you can mount the lens on the A7, you can expect darkening around the edges of the resulting photos because the image circle produced by the lens is not large enough to completely cover the image sensor in the A7. You'd be better off using the new Zeiss lenses designed for the A7.

I used it to connect a NEX7 to an HVLF20M. It works great! I think the a6000 is the successor to the NEX7, so I'd suppose the answer is Yes. It's an educated guess.

No, it doesn't work with the A6000....but there is a relationship that you need to understand to know which adapter to buy. This adapter allows the use of Multi-Interface (MI) Shoe devices (like a flash) with cameras that have the older Auto-Lock Accessory Shoe (like a Sony A57 which I own). I had a NEX-6 and now I own an A6000. I also have a flash (HVLF20M) which has a Multi-Interface connection. So, because I wanted to use this flash with my A57, I needed to buy this ADP-AMA shoe adapter. The NEX-7 has the old shoe, that's why this adapter is needed with it. The NEX-6 had the MI shoe as does all other Alpha cameras built after the NEX-6. So, from the point of view of the A6000, this adapter is not needed. On the other hand, if you want to use older devices (with some limitations of course) with your A6000 (or other MI camera), Sony sells a similar adapter that does the opposite of this one (i.e., let you use older devices with the new MI shoe). The part number for that adapter is: ADP-MMA (just one letter change...the M after ADP). I hope this answers your question. If not, please comment again with more details on what you want to do.

On my A7 it works perfectly ok with my canon lenses. Not so good was the Tokina 12-24mm, but they were really meant for APS sensors anyway, and A Rokinon 8mm fisheye. Hopelessly vignetted, as in literally half the frame missing.

The a6000 uses the muti interface shoe just like my Nex 6. So it should work. Make sure you get the HVLF43M for the muti interface shoe not the HVLF43AM.

Sigma makes an E-Mount version of the 60mm F2.8DN E lens that should work on the a6000. Just be sure to get the E-Mount version.

I know that it will work well on the A7 which is full frame with the same E-mount, but I can't tell about the A600. I would call Sony before I buy it.

The A6000 seems to have the Sony version of a conventional hot shoe; a non-Sony flash will fit, but won't interface with the extra Sony contacts. The adapter is for the Sony proprietary (that is, not conventional) hot shoe (as on my NEX7). So, won't work.

Do not own a6000. Flash works on 200 and a77. If a6000 has proprietary sony hot shoe, flash should be compatible.
