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.

The Sony adapter worked for my A65. Are you sure you have the Sony adapter?

I used this remote with Sony A7ii, where I had to go into the menu system and turn remote control on before it would work with the camera. Most likely it's the same with A6000

Sony A3000 use a e-mount type lens so this will not work with out the adapter.

Hi, your Sony a5000 is an E-mouth body type camera. This lens, SAL30M28 is an A-mount type of lens. It will not fit in, however, you may use the Sony A mount to E mount lens adaptor: LA-EA4 or LA-EA3 to make it work. Hope this helps. -Ely

It attached to my Sony A65 and will attach to your A57 if you get the Sony/Minolta T-mount adapter with it. Getting the desired result from its use is another matter. It did not work well for my intended purpose, but I have to take much of the blame for that. I did not have a solid enough tripod for a lens of its length and weight and I could not focus it clearly. As a result, I missed the wildlife shot that I wanted to get. This probably could have been avoided if I had practiced with it before the moment arose.

The Sony A5000 is considered an E Mount lense camera. This adapter will work with this line, however, you will need to set your camera to manual mode/no lens attached. Your camera will still provide the functions of the camera, but not functions of a lense (i.e. autofocus) I used this adapter with my Sony E mount camera and an old manual focus Nikon lens. The only issue I immediately noticed was the need for support when used with large lenses. With large lenses, you need stability to take clean shots but don't try and mount that combo to a tripod. Finding a lense ring to mount to the tripod is difficult unless someone makes one for you. I found a solution and purchased a $25 video camera handi unit that videographers use to mount thier camera and other devices to. The pros were no stress on the camera mounting bracket, extra handle grips The part that interested me was the cage length which allowed me to mount the camera and give me a place somewhere in the middle of the lens to add a felt riser the lens could rest on and take the stress off the mounting bracket. I only needed that bulky setup when I used large lenses with my Sony E Mount camera. I found this adapter to work wiell with all my Nikon lenses. The decision to make is whether or not you want autofocus to function with an adapter. If that's the case, you need to likely buy a Sony adapter. The price of this adapter outweighted the autofocus and the pictures were spectacular.

There is an A(lpha) mount and an E mount. you can adapt A mount lenses to work on E but not the other way. it looks like the A3000 uses the E mount lenses, so you need the Alpha mount adapter. I would check to make sure you get the right one but sony lists the adapter for 199.99. So technically you can use it but it will cost an extra $200 to. make it work.

This lens will not work on the A5000 without an adapter. You would be better off buying a lens specifically made for the 5000 rather than buying it with an additional expense of an adapter. Furthermore the additional bulk would seem to defeat the whole idea of buying thru 5000 for a compact camera setup.

I have the Acer A200 Tablet which is a 10.1 tablet and it fits fine. As long as your A500 is a 10 inch tablet, I see no reason why it would not work with the possible exception of the placement of the camera. Other than that, I think you will enjoy it.

Bought it months ago and it works just fine on the A6000. Using firmware version 1.1 if that helps.

No. The new sony cameras including the a500 have adopted the E-mount lenses despite the word alpha in their name. The older Sony Cameras that used the alpha-mount lenses are the only ones that can use the Minolta lenses.

I think uv,cpl,fld not fit a5000 ,because difference brand merchandise can't use each other accessory. Mable other thing is useful

My Sony A-57 operates the same way. I bought a Opteka T-Mount adapter for a cheap 500mm lens. I had to go to the menu to allow it to release the shutter when the lens is not on, since the camera cannot detect the manual lens.

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.
