I know it says its compatible with the Sony NEX-6 camera, but want to know if anyone bought it and uses it with this camera. How well does it perform?

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

Yes, it is compatible. I have that same camera and I use the flash all the time. It gives off a good bit of light, but not good enough for a night field game, say like, lacrosse or soccer. Still too dim. But for indoor parties and summer night fun, works well.

No it will not work with NEX models - Adapter is required - sony LA-EA1 should go well - but again check before you buy.

I use the MegaGear case on my NEX7, so I would imagine it would work fine with the NEX 6. It is a good case, and works with the kit lens, the wide angle lens, but not the 200mm telephoto. it is weathertight, which is what I mainly wanted, and you can either let the lens cover hang, or remove it very easily. Good case. Does what was promised. ps the strap they provide is worse than the original. I stayed with the original.

This is compatible with A-Mount cameras. I believe the Nex-6 is e-mount. So you would have to get an A-mount to E-mount adapter. Be aware of the type of adapter you get if so you don't lose auto focus. Hope this helped you.

It is and I use it on my Nex 6. Any other questions, email me at fourdoc@mchsi.com

Wish I could help you but the Nex-6 is my first Nex camera and I don't know much about the others. Sorry

Yes, the Sony SELP18105G lens has an E-mount. I have been using it on my Sony NEX-5R for about a month. All NEX cameras have an E-mount connection so there should be no problem putting it on a Sony NEX-6.

You're out of luck --- here's a page from Sony that lists adapters (at bottom of the page for NEX) --- unfortunately I think the NEX 6/7 are referred to as the first Alpha type camera....so the NEX-3/5 items don't work. But it appears that the 6/7 have a much wider variety of flashes than the strange/proprietary mounts on the 3/5. http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/support-info.pl?info_id=634&mdl=SLTA58

Hi there! It works just fine. If you want optimal low light performance, there are many Sony camera models to choose from that features amazing low light capabilities. -Anthony

I have used the Fotodiox adapter to connect an all manual Pentax K mount lens to my Sony Nex-6 with no problem. Be sure to set your camera to manual mode. It works great. If you keep your camera on aperture control it won't work (at least with the Sony). Also be sure to enable the release w/o lens setting.

(Reply to Rachel's post):This was my question exactly.. I like it's features but am reluctant to buy it because it says it's only for specific cameras. What makes it compatible with those but not other brands/models? (specifically please, from someone who knows for sure) There has to be a reason why it's listed as only for those cameras, and I'd like to know what it is..

It is compatible, but there are lots of tradeoffs. My SEL18200 E mount lens creates a file of 16 MB shooting in RAW, big loss from even the NEX 7 at 24MB. There are 3 software settings, On, Off, and Automatic. You also lose the steady shot feature which makes a lot of shots hard to focus.

Not sure if it will work, but I do know it works with my NEX3 ... if I use the lens I set the camera to work without a lens, then it works, just some automatic settings don't as it's a manual lens.

On my NEX6 is not working at all. Sending it back but not sure if this is camera or flash.

Yes, I use it on my NEX-6 and I love it. It is my go to lens for video and the only lens I now carry on a daily basis.

It works with my Sony HDR-CX260V. Some of the functions like search or focus require the camera to be in the appropriate mode - not a problem for me; I just wanted the shooting controls, which work perfectly. And, BTW, the adapter cable came with the unit and also works perfectly.

Will not work on the NEX-7. It uses the tripod mount and the NEX-7 is in the wrong location. Anyway I use the electronic viewfinder which is on my NEX-7.
