As long as you have the right cable this will work with any system so yes, it will also work with bulb mode. It can be used wired or wireless. It the best timer remote on the market. The only cameras I have owned it will not work on is the new Sony a7/7R as they have some sort of new remote port.

I use a Canon 7D. This will work using the "B" (bulb) setting. I've used it for moon shots and infrared exposures - all 10 to 20 second exposures.

Yes it does. I have a Sony a77, with the NPT-04 transmitter for sony. I have the Canon-mount receiver, to trigger a 430 EX. They work together perfectly.

I don't know from experience, but the a58 still uses an A-mount system so the adapter that comes with this set should work.

I use them on my A99. Both the transmitter and receiver have the old style shoe so I use an adapter on the camera and I have to use another adapter if I want to put the HVL60 flash on the transmitter or if I use it on the receiver. I can use the HVL58 just fine without any adapters.

Hi Paul,With the cameras that I currently use, the CamRanger doesn't support the bulb function. However, CamRanger does support numerous cameras for the bulb function, just happens mine aren't included. To determine if your camera is supported by CamRanger go to CamRanger.com and select Night Photography, then look for, "See supported cameras for bulb mode support" on that page. There is a good review done by StarCircleAcademy.com on the CamRanger that does include information about Bulb function. Hopefully this helps you decide if this is a good tool for your photography.

I believe it would. I have an equivalent flash (non-Sony though) that I used to use with my A100. I can now use it with full functionality on my A58, with this adapter.

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 bought these items to go with my Sony A700 and A900. Both these cameras have the "Sony" hot shoe on them and the transmitter works with them. The receiver also has the "Sony" hot shoe so it works with "Sony" flashes and will not fit a regular"standard" flash unit, which is basically every other brand including the Neewer. The newer Sony cameras and flashes are changing over to the same standard as every other brand has, however the A77 has the older style hotshoe I believe. That said I also use these triggers with my studio strobes connecting with the included sync cord. Wanting to give you a good answer I spent some time looking at the photos of the items you are considering buying and I noticed that the photos showed two different versions of the item and the headline of the ad listed a different model number than the product details listed below. The photos are also confusing because some show a standard hot shoe and others the Sony hot shoe. My suggestion is to buy the "Sony" trigger and a "standard" receiver. What adds to the confusion is that the two different styles both have the same model number!! I bought an extra receiver so I could trigger two flashes and I have been pleased with the products so far.

Yes it is. The A58 uses the newer MIS shoe, which is what the HVLF43M has. The M, alone on the end indicates that the flash is for the MIS shoe. If you want the older Sony Alpha style show look for the HVL-F43AM (Note the AM)

Yeah. I work with sony a77 with FA-HS1AM adapter (must be modified - too low voltage to start trigger!!!). Nikon - works good. Leica works good too. Flash complex by Aurora (Korea)

I have a Sony A7s, which has the same mount, and it works perfectly. There is no autofocus or aperture control so it will only work with an older Nikon lens with aperture ring. There is a little play in the mount but I have not noticed any light leaks or problems. I shoot video and use this with a Nikon 70-200 2.8.

Yes, according to Sony most features of the HVL-F43AM are compatible with the A58. http://www.sony-asia.com/support/resources/en_AP/html/Compatibility/DSLR/Flash/sony/F43AM.html

yes this designed for the a7. A7 use a regular hot shoe, Sony Alpha SLT/ DSLR use some odd one. This really is the only flash that you don't need an adapter and is TTL, but it is smaller/ weaker then most flash. Yes I tried at Tall's camera on my A7 and it worked with TTL. Just didn't buy it yet.

You should confirm with Sony, but yes they are compatible. The past concern was with the proprietary hot shoe. Sony has since followed the standard hot shoe interface and this is no longer an issue. This flash works fine on my A7.

Dear friend, I have a sony A65 too, but this adapter does not work properly. I do recommend this: Cowboystudio 16 Channel Radio Wireless Remote for Studio Strobe, Compatible with Sony Digital SLR Camera, you can find it on AMAZON and works perfectly.

I don't know if it'll work with the Metz 58 but it's worked with 3 different flashes for me from Canon, Sunpak and I can't remember the last one but it was a generic manual flash
