Hi Charles T. In fact is for that model (the same that I just...well...Lets say that now I dont know what camera to buy to replace my dear a65) Well. Yes. It makes the proprietary shoe of Sony on the most of the old alpha camera series (the a58 is newer and has the standard or MultiShoe or simply put the same shoe as Nikon, cannon, and so on). Good Luck!

Nope,but I'm sure out there are some shutter controls.why don't you wait some more time and get the a99?

Yes. I use these with my a850 and they work well. I've had trouble with the a99, but the 100 / 900 should be good!

No, this mount is designed to fit the current Sony Alpha DSLRs up to the A77. A99 and Nex Camera's would not work with this particular mount

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.

Yes, the lens does work. We have an A55 and A99 and the lens works great on both. It is just the focal length will be different on the half-frame A55. This is an amazing lens, and the go-to-lens for all our portrait shots.

Works great as slave or on-camera flash with my A65. "The A99's biggest hardware change from previous SLT models is the incorporation of a hotshoe that's compatible with the ISO standard allowing the welcome use of third party accessories. It still features a series of proprietary connector pins along its front edge, allowing use with Sony's flashguns and various accessories". I have not used an A99, but based on that article I would guess you would be fine.

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

I have both the A77 & the A99. I use the SAL-2470Z on the full frame camera, and I use the lighter and less expensive SAL-1680Z on the A77.

the port on both the a55 and a99 are the same, it "should" work. Amazon is great with returns, you can always give it a try, if it doesnt workout, just return it.

Yes, and yes. If your not professional, it could be a headache. But it worked out great for my T999

The a99 comes with a hotshoe adaptor to accept the older Sony flash units. I've used the older 56 and 20FM models with the a99 and they work just fine with the included adaptor.

I got it for the Sony A7 which is a ill frame camera and didn't work for me

Yes. I've pulled mine and verified that it has all 4 pins, and it does use the older Minolta-style hot-shoe connector that the A77 uses. (I say old-style because the A99 and some of the smaller newer models, such as the a58, and likely all future Sony models, use the more standard canon-style connector)

There is an adpater that comes with the a99 which works perfectly with the old Sony/Minolta flashes. I also felt that the build quality for this adapter was very good.
