It is a converter that allows you to use sony flashes on other cameras. It converts the blade type interface on cannons and nikons etc to the pin type interface used on Sony. I am not sure if it will work backwards

It will work manually but does not have an automatic mode. Also you will need an adaptor ring for it to mount to the camera body. These takumar 50mm lenses are definatly worth it. Hope this helps.

I use some of my older Minolta lenses and they work fine in manual mode, I'm not sure about your lenses but you can go into sony's web site and they tell you the lenses that do work.

I set the flash on manual mode. Is that what you are asking, if not please clarify question.

You will need the Sony ADP-MAA adapter. It will work in ADI and TTL mode. Sometimes you need to cycle power on the NEX if the flash isn't recognized (best to install with camera powered off). The Metz 36 AF-5 doesn't have a remote trigger or manual output settings, so it would only work well on a remote cable. Yongnuo 560 II would be a better remote strobe.

It should work if you use it off camera in manual mode and triggered by either another on camera flash or other off camera flash which is how I use it with all 4 Nikon cameras I have. Not sure if it will work on camera in hot shoe in auto mode but its not capable in TTL. You should just consider it as auxiliary flash. It is very dependable in manual mode not attached to camera.

The Nex 6 has a standard hot shoe I think. This adapter is made for older Next models that used Sony's proprietary hot shoe. You shouldn't need an adapter for the Nex 6 and a standard remote trigger should work.

It does work in TTL mode with the adapter, but I find that the flash is more accurate in the auto setting than TTL. Overall not as powerful as the Sony HVL-F58am or HVL-F60, but I find the reliability to be rock solid when compared to the Sony flashes as it has never overheated during an event. I still prefer the build quality and flexibility of the swivel head on the Sony, but due to the overheating issues I mentioned earlier I went with the Metz and do not regret it so far.

Hi Phyllis,This flash is for Nikon cameras, and ours, regrettably, does not come with the manual. However, I did find an electronic version of the manual online:http://www.nikonusa.com/pdf/manuals/Speedlights/SB-50DX.pdf Thanks for your interest!

Yes & no. It has a standard hotshot not a Sony. You will need an adapter. I use this flash with my alpha 57 with an adapter and also as a remote. It does not have TTL and must be used in manual mode.

All this is, is a raw converter from the normal hot shoe that most makers use, to fit the hot shoe that Sony uses on its NEX series cameras. So yes you will be able to fit the flash on to your NEX, but most of the functions like TTL will not work, so you'll have to manually calibrate the flash, which can be tricky. If you really depend on a flash for your photography with the NEX, I'd recommend you consider buying the dedicated Sony flashes for simplicity & less frustrations. They do sell flash converters that allow some functionality of the non Sony flash, but these are much more expensive.

Yes it flashes when you press the button. Even more its a ETTL flash. What means you can use it in automatic or manual mode.

I don't shoot in Auto. Sorry. It is simple to use in manual mode. I love this camera! But I am also a photographer with professional cameras.

You have to use it in Manuel mode. It's ok but I wished I would have spent more money and just bought the canon brand speedlite instead but this one is still good for the price

It would be helpfull if you told us what triggers and what camera u are using.I bought Pixel King Wireless iTTL triggers for NIkon and they do not work with my Sigma EF-530-DG-Super... so you see it is not only about the Flash...

Yes, I've read that sb600/900/910 function manually on the camera and using some wireless triggers, even cheap cowboy studio ones. I use a yongnuo st-e3-rt on my x-t1 and to fire a canon 600 EXRT flash and previously used it on the x-e2 so system is versatile though you might want to go to your camera shop with your flash to try it out first if you have other models of flash.

I don't have a NEX, but it should. I don't have an 860 either, so I can't talk about it. The TT850 is a manual, one-pin flash, so it ought to work with any camera that has a standard form factor shoe with a center pin. I have 3 TT850s and wish my other 4 speedlights were TT850s.
