Alicia, I have not used that combination. I have used with A7r and Canon Lens. Works good enough. Auto focus is not as fast as the A7r with a a native Sony lens, but works. I must say though I sue manual focus most, DMF mode. With the wide angle of the Sigma, and the nature of what is shot with such a lens MF would be about All I'd ever user with that lens so any slowness. If you were shooting wildlife with Telephoto > 200mm then the AF is not fast enough. The electronics does work and EXIF data for the lens is stored with imageBottom line: Opens up other lenses for the Sony. Slower auto focus. Alicia, I have not used that combination.

One issue: sometimes it loose part of the conection and loose the Aperture control. You need to reconect an its ok. The same thing with metabones, so I recomend it.

First of all, it's going to always be manual focus. I do have this adapter with A7, not A6000, but the only different would be the censor size. It's should work as expected on a6000. There is no glass/lens so it's should not effect any image quality.

Yes it works fine, no adapters create a crop, with the exception of the Sony A to e mount adapter and the LAE 1 and 2 are APSc crop whilst the LAE4 is full frame. Hope that helps regards Garth

I own a Sony a6000. The correct adapter should work as mentioned by Mike Bokeh In his review but most important you just loose the autofocus ability and believe me that is a feature that you need for fast focus shooting like sports, fast moving kids etc..I purchased it and returned it and wind up purchasing a comparable sony lens to really take advantage of the super fast focus capability of the camera. Otherwise you are defeating the whole purpose of owning one of the fastest compact autofocus cameras.

I am hoping to use this on an E-510 with their 50mm macro lens and extension tube which have 52mm threads and a 52-58mm adapter. Assuming you purchased this flash, are you using the same set-up and what has been your experience? If anyone else is using this with a similar Olympus camera, I'd like your comments also.

I have used the Fotodiox adapter to connect an all manual Pentax K mount lens to my Sony Nex-6 with no problem. Be sure to set your camera to manual mode. It works great. If you keep your camera on aperture control it won't work (at least with the Sony). Also be sure to enable the release w/o lens setting.

I'm not a Sony-savvy user but there is no crop with the adapter using the A-Mount 70-300mm with my A7. In other words, Sony lenses designed for fukl frame cameras remain full frame on the A7 with the adapter. I think I'm correct but others may know better.

I just bought an adapter ring that accepts 67mm filters. So far, so good. I can't believe that Nikon offers NO support for this. I tried the 'tube' adapter and it really didn't work for me at all. I zoom in and out all the time and with the tube on you can't do that. I will say that the adapter ring that I bought was REALLY loose at first and I didn't think it would work out. It seems to have seated itself to my camera no and stays on quite nicely.

Many thanks for replying. Have just ordered an adapter ( cheaply), as I only wanted the lens to play around with. Lesson learnt ; Hubby cannot buy lenses without me knowing what he's paying out for !!

The adapter works great. I have not used it with a 60mm macro but have used it with a 105 macro an 85 1.8 and a 300 mm lens.

This adapter is for Pentax Lenses. I'm not sure if the sigma you are asking about has the same mount as Pentax. Probably not.

Yes, it works well with G lenses (primes and zooms). Not great though, but fairly good especially for the price. I have tried the adapter with 7 different Nikon G lenses and several Sigma macro lenses. The setting of an aperture is a bit of a guessing game! Fotodiox is great in standing behind their products

This adapter fits on E-Mount cameras which allows A(Alpha) -Mount lens to fit on it, from looking at the specs of the a6000, it does say that this is a camera with an E-Mount structure. You need to find out what mount your Sigma lens has, Sigma has built the same lens with several mount, look it herre : http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Sigma+17-70mm+f%2F2.8-4+DC+Macro&N;=0&Init;ialSearch=yes&sts;=ma&Top;+Nav-Search= once you know that, you will be able to tell if the adaptor will work.

The adapter works very well and is easily attached and detached. My only reservation is that my prized Leica SUMICRON 50 mm lens was not sharper on my Sony NEX6 than the 16-55 kit lens. Both are very sharp.

Assuming you mean could a Nikon or Canon LENS be used with the Sony a6000, the answer is YES, providing you purchase the correct adapter. This is one of the many reasons that make this camera so great to have. On some adapters, you lose autofocus. On other adapters, you can have autofocus, but lose the hi-speed autofocus this camera is so well known for. From what I know, NO QUALITY of the lens itself is lost. The better piece of glass you put on the adapter, the better the quality of the picture. Do not expect to put a cheap lens on this camera and come out with a superior photo. That said, because this is a crop frame camera, you can manage good photos with cheaper lenses because you are using, in essence the center of the lens and not the outer fringes where a lot of softening sometimes takes place. I have a Sigma 60mm DA art lens for portraits (no adapter needed) and the lens is so sharp you almost cut your self on it. In some cases, cheaper, softer lenses would be better at times, especially when taking portraits, in my humble opinion.

I placed this lens on a Nikon N80 35mm camera and the image jerked a couple of times then began focusing normally. It only happened when I initially attached the lens and first turned the camera on. Not sure if the lens is totally compatible with 35mm. Did you attach it to a 35mm or digital? Did you determine the cause and was the lens not working correctly?

I don't think so and here's why. The point of this adapter is to take Full Frame lenses and compress the image down to a cropped sensor camera. For example, I am using this on my Sony FS700 (cropped sensor) with a Canon 24 - 105 F4 (full frame) lens. The lens is not cropped because of the metabones adapter reducing the image. You could use a different adapter to go from Canon to Sony. I would guess a much cheaper one also.
