LA-EA4 is a E mount for A7 & A7r these are full frame cameras with E mount only. You can use Alpha lenses with the EA4. A 99 has nothing to do with LA-EA4 mount wont fit. A 99 is strictly a alpha mount. E mount Lenses attach directly to A7 & A7r.

Hi Sylvester, Sony SAL35F18 Lens is compatible on the Sony A99 Camera but is not recommended to be used on the camera due to their differing image circle size, which may affect light metering accuracy in certain shooting situations. -Vincent

As well as any other A-mount body. Bear in mind the new AF-D mode and built in focus-limiting features only work primarily with the newest supported sony lenses. I use the minolta 28-135, 70-210, and 50 on my A99 with no issues however. Strong motor with plenty of torque to make these old lenses focus quickly (albeit noisily).

No, I won't recommend it for a99 since this one is a full frame camera, and this lens is APCS frame.

If it has a one inch tube its okay. I have a weaver K4 in my mount now. Plan to use a NIKON 3X9 prostaff.... the last model, in it soon. Plan to take your toolbox along to mount and dismount it ha ha!

I have the nexstar 8SE and upgraded to the advanced vx mount for longer exposures. This mount has exceeded my expectations and it handles the 8" SCT tube, guide scope, and dslr with ease.

Not without an adapter to covert the A7ii E-mount to an A-mount. There are two different Alpha mounts the e-mounts came from the NEX cameras which is what the A7 series uses. You can get an adapter.

Beware of the Neewer brand,Gnarly*. I got one for my a7r and caused some bad flare on the image...you might be better off getting the Fotga brand, 4 of the adapter I got works w/o issue.

If a99 has standard shoe you will need the adapter as with the a58 where it works in TTL, if a99 has minolta so will work without adapter and in TTL also as with my old a55

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 tried a cheaper one first and found that it kept getting loose. No good. So I tried the Leupold. It was tight fitting it on the handle and stayed tight. The only way to mount an optic on an AR with a permanent handle.

That is true. Lens for APS-C is not good enough for A99. 24-70/2.8 Zeiss are working great with A99 - I have A99, A900 and A77 and this is lens for full frame bodies. It is sharp, has very good contrast, images looks perfectly. It is my best lens at the moment. 16-50/2.8 has problem with working with light in the view, 24-70/2.8 is much better (look at my pictures, for example https://www.flickr.com/photos/jacekr/6050308354/ ).Best regards, Jacek.

It works on the a99 and it works very, very well. I know of a pro who recommends this.

It should, since it is an A-mount SONY lens. (Congratulations on choosing a very nice standard lens, by the way!) This lens, I believe, was designed for the earlier, APS-C cameras SONY created such as the A55, A65, A77 and their older siblings. With this lens's relationship to their smaller sensor, you may see "fall-off" of image acuity around the edges of the bigger sensor found in your A99. That shouldn't be a problem and I would bet that, even if that did happen, it wouldn't take much to either eliminate the effect or adjust for it.

the a77 and a77ll are both a-mounts. Your 18-135 will fit these cameras, as well as all other a-mount cameras by sony.

I use this flash on the A77, which uses the proprietary Sony flash shoe. I believe that the A99 has a standard flash shoe, which would not fit this flash.

The SAL18135 lens is an A-mount lens, while the NEX 6 has an E mount. You would need an E-mount to A-mount adapter, such as the Sony LA-EA4 adapter or LA-EA3 adapter. Check the features of both adapters (the LA-EA4 gives autofocus, but costs more, both take A-mount lenses).
