Does the ring set (7 Ring Fotodriox) maintain the auto feature on my Sony DSL a200?

Sure. It attaches to the front of whatever lens you are using so it doesn't come between the camera and lens contacts. FYI, if you only need a couple of the rings, not the whole set, you might want to look at rings made of brass. They are sturdier and the threads have less chance of locking down. Also, I recommend getting filter stacking caps in whatever sizes you need. (For instance, one set of caps in 72mm for the biggest ring in your stack and another set in 49 mm if that's the smallest. Or, if you have one 52-58mm ring, get a cap set in each of those.) Those will keep their shape while knocking around in your bag.

Hi, I'm not familiar with the Sony camera but as they attach to the front of the lens the rings themselves should have no impact whatsoever on the camera function. The filter you screw into the step up rings may have some impact, for example by reducing light transmitted to the sensor but most camera auto functions would compensate automatically and change the exposure settings

No, you will have to manually set the aperture on the lens via the aperture ring.

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.

As far as I can tell... Sony didn't change any of the hardwiring and very little of the main architecture! All of my Minolta gear (with the exception of a few model specific pieces) fit and operates no differently on my Sonys (A900 & A77). In-fact, my strobes actually work better on the Sonys! I've only used the Pixel Kings once on my A900, in manual and slave mode.... no problems there. I DID NOT try it in TTL mode, mainly because I purchased the PK with the updated firmware specifically for the new A77..... back when they first came out! I have several different dedicated flash strobes for my Minolta/Sonys and they all work well with the PK (Sunpak, Metz, Minolta & the Sony F58AM) As far as I can tell...

What Barry said. Ring spins infinitely however, so it's less than ideal for manual focus.

Unfortunately that is simply a characteristic of the camera. When you have it set to auto (the green camera symbol on the dial) and turn the camera off when you turn it back on the flash setting will default back to auto. If you use other camera modes on the dial (A, S, P) then your flash setting will remain regardless of whether or not the camera is powered down.

No. I use mine on automatic because as an art major taking film photography as an elective, it's easier for me to use it in auto but you can switch it to manual if you want.

Yes, but the settings remain until you switch back to auto. they are not erased.
433099
Yes it will, with the caveat of course that your lenses were made before the days of autofocus and auto aperture,so of course those options won't be available. Just be sure to enable the "use aperture ring" option in the menus first.

Hi, you can do both. When in auto, its only an auto/off mode, whereas in P mode, you can also set it to "always on" and "slow synchro". Slow synchro "keeps subjects and distant backgrounds brights".
1261017
yes there are automatic setting for the camera. Auto-focus works as long as you use a sony e-mount lens.

There is no full auto mode. You may be better off with an excellent DX camera like the D5300.

you can set it to auto or man its a switch on lens As for as usm its my understanding this is found on high price lens only

I have not had any issues with this selector switching during use in manual mode. It has been a very reliable piece of equipment.

It works with Sony A7, but not well. In the TTL mode, it is severely underpowered with bright background. The Auto mode seems to work better with bright background. Sony HVL-43M (TTL mode) provide more accurate exposure. I also tried Nikon SB800 in the Auto mode (it mounts directly with no adapter). It seems to work as good as Metz and Sony in the Auto mode. Quantum Trio and QFlash T5d-R for Nikon in the Auto mode and manual mode, however, provide the best exposure. Sony & Metz flashes sync at 1/250 sec no problem. But Nikon and Quantum flashes cannot sync at 1/250. It has to be 1/200 or slower. It works with Sony A7, but not well. In the TTL mode, it is severely underpowered with bright background.

I have mine on a 7100 but the answer is in the lens not the camera. First, if you are using an automated shooting mode the F stop adjusts automatically as the shoot. But in manual mode M you've got to adjust the F stop yourself. Look on the lens where the F stop numbers are listed from 32 down to 4. Above the "4" you will see a little sliding tab with a little white dot on it (this is to the right of a small orange mark). This sliding tab locks the f stop for automatic use. Just slide the tab with the white dot toward the front of the lens and that will unlock the f stop ring for manual use. Hope this helps, if not, feel free to ask again.

I am not really sure that the converter will work in auto mode. Usually, teleconverters are not too successful with slower lenses. I use mine with lenses that can deliver an f4.0 or larger aperture.
