I wish that I had read your post a few days ago... I have a Sony A350 and guess what my Husband acquired for me. A Minolta md mount. whoops. Luckily, it was only a few pounds on ebay but is there any way I can fit this to my camera?

There are MA to MD adapters on ebay but you'll be stuck with manual focus. It isn't likely to be worth the cost and hassle. If you are looking, what is it you wanted to do and at what budget?

Many thanks for replying. Have just ordered an adapter ( cheaply), as I only wanted the lens to play around with. Lesson learnt ; Hubby cannot buy lenses without me knowing what he's paying out for !!

The D50 is compatible with all AF and DX lenses. The 55-300mm is a DX lens.

It appears that compatibility is based on whether the lens is an "A mount" or an "E mount" with "a" meaning alpha. So, they should be compatible due to both being members of the "alpha" family. This seems to apply to accessories as well. To be certain, however, I would refer to the Sony website where you can view camera compatibility with specific lenses and accessories. I know there are reasonably priced flash adapters, if necessary.

The Sony SLT-A58K accepts any interchangeable "A mount" lens. Minolta was the only other camera manufacturer to use the "A mount". Sony bought over Minolta which is why they use the "A mount". Other independent lens manufacturers make lenses for Sony with "A mounts". This camera has one of the largest selection of interchangeable lenses.

It works with my A55 it should work with the A57 but it is not recognized as a sony flash. Which means in very dark situations you wont be able to see anything through the viewfinder. There is a bunch of tricks online in how to work around this issue. For the price i say is still a good deal compare to the sony flash.

Hi Gustavo, Yes. Those lenses will fit on a7. However, we recommend using full frame E mount lenses for best output. -Anthony

It should be ok. In my camera compartment I have my Sony a77 and three lenses total: 16-50mm 2.8; 55-200 3.5?; and a fat Rokinon 8mm fisheye.

I can't answer your question directly, since my 55mm cap fits a lens for a Sony Alpha 100 camera. However, it probably will fit, if your lens is labelled to fit 55mm filters. The sizes of caps and filters are fairly well standardized across lens manufacturers.

The other answers are good. You can as well use step-up or step-down rings to match these 52mm lenses. Amazon sell several sets, and they can be stacked to achieve the needed match-up. Example, your lens is 48mm, use a step-up 48-55mm then a55-58mm and then use the close-up of your choice. You can also stack-up your close-up lenses to increase magnification. This will require VERY close focal distances and MUCH more light.

Are u referring to the filter end or the lens mount? I use it on a Sony a65. It has an A mount on it that will fit your 55.

It sure will! The 18-55 lens was an optional lens as part of an A55 "kit" or package sold by SONY.

I haven't confirmed this yet, but from everything I've read the 52mm is what you should be using for the 18-55 lens.

. The A3000 is compatible with Sony's growing selection of E-mount lenses; smaller, lighter and designed specifically for Sony's compact interchangeable lens cameras (NEX). With that said, I would focus on sony E mount lens. The 55-300 in question is made for the larger framed Sony SLR camera. You should be able to find something similar in an E mount.
