The SEL18200 would be better in that it has the OSS for stabilized images, which will come in handy at the longer range of the lens. As Alpha DSLRs use in-body image stabilization, this lens would not have any lens stabilization so you'll need to shoot with a tripod or have solid, steady hands. As both the SEL18200 and this lens are APS-C format lenses, the multiplier is 1.5 so you'll get a 300mm lens and a 450mm respectively when converting to a full frame format.

What is the equivalent focal length and zoom multiplier with the nex-5? Would the sel18200 be a better telephoto lens?

You need a adapter -sony sells two but don't do it they are slow. I use the Sony E-Mount 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 on my 5N It was a heavey video lens not designed for the nex but it's my favorite.I also used it on my Nex 3 before they came out with the smaller Nex len 55-210 that is over priced junk by the way-theres also the zeiss Sony SEL2470Z FE 24-70mm f/4 Lens"very spendy" both of these weight a lot but great on the Nex

I don't think it works on anything, the unit works fine between the transmitter and deceived when I tested it but my NEX5n would not recognize there was a flash attached to the hotshoe so the flash mode was totally useless. Your camera could be totally different so this a complete crapshoot. So try it, if it works good for you, if not, send it back. It was a total chance on my part because the reviews were pretty bad.

Not sure if works with NEX-6 but it doesn't with NEX-5. It fits the camera and lens but you can not focus with this adapter

Hi Carrie,Picture quality with the nex-5 is great- I think it might be the flash that's an issue. The Nex-5's flash is small and quite delicate. If you're doing a lot of interiors, you might look at the Nex-6, which I believe has a more traditional shoe for the flash. The nex-5 flash is finicky to attach (it works fine) and doesn't appear rugged enough for me to comfortably leave attached to the camera.

I think it depends on the camera you are using. For the NEX Sony I needed a $24 adapter. Email METZ. They do respond.

No you cannot use this lens directly on NEX. This lens is Alpha - A mount. NEX uses E mount.You can use this lens on NEX with an adaptor.

I have a 5N, and this combo works well. To my knowlege they have not changed the mount on the 5T so this should work with all the NEX cameras. These are real fun toy lenses. I usually end up using these more then my $700 NEX lenses.

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.

This mounts directly onto the camera like any lens would. The only other thing you need is a lens with an M42 mount. When using this (or any) lens adapter with the NEX, you will also need to change one setting on the camera. Go to "Setup" and find "Release w/o Lens". This will tell the NEX to allow the shutter to open when it doesn't detect the lens. Most lens converters are like this one and don't have any electronics. They simply allow you to put a lens over the sensor. Because of that, you need to tell the camera to allow you to do that - which is what that setting does. Hope that helps!

It is not native e-mount, so you will need the lea-2 adapter (lea-1 will work, but is too slow). The adapter has phase detection and works well with the lens. The lens is big though, so you'll likely want a monopod for better handling with the nex-7.

Thanks for posting your question,As per the product description, this will not work with the nex 3N- this adapter is only compatible with these Sony models: NEX-3 NEX-5 NEX-C3 NEX-5N NEX-F3 NEX-5RI hope this helps!

I use an NEX 7 and it works fine. Ask your question on the dpreview forums where there is a lot of A7 talk.

This one does not require an adapter. It is designed for the multi interface for the newer Alpha NEX cameras. It is a decent flash and offers more options than the popup flash. If you are looking for a versatile flash I would recommend the HVL43 with an adapter. Overall I like it but due to the size and does not require and adapter for my NEX 6.

No, this flash does not require an adapter for the NEX-7. The NEX-7 has a different flash shoe from the NEX-5 and NEX-3 models. The NEX-7 takes the same flashes as the SONY DSLR cameras.

No, you need a lens adapter ring. Like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Mount-Adapter-NEX-5N-NEX-5-Camera/dp/B00FZUJLV4/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1425478244&sr=8-11&keywords=nex+lens+adapter+ring
