Have you tried to use this remote with a SONY camera with AV connector (using an LANC to AV adapter)? I have a SONY NEX camera.

Gleon. Bottom Line: No I have not used the equipment configuration you describe. I have always used thumb controllers like this Manfrotto with the mini-jack built into the camera (e.g. SONY NX5 and NX70) However, instead of buying this Manfrotto controller couldn't you purchase a SONY RM-AV2 Remote Commander which is designed to plug into your camera's A/V port (I assume you have the newer 10pin A/V port which also carries the LANC control signals as described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LANC). I have also used the RM-AV2 in this manner with the smaller camcorders that do have the 10pin port and it works quite well. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Tim

I actually own sony camera's. I see no reason why it should not work with that camera.

Dear friend, I have a sony A65 too, but this adapter does not work properly. I do recommend this: Cowboystudio 16 Channel Radio Wireless Remote for Studio Strobe, Compatible with Sony Digital SLR Camera, you can find it on AMAZON and works perfectly.

Hi Dana - the remote will only work with line of sight. In other words you have to point the remote at the pickup sensor on the front of the camera (or on the back if your camera has a rear sensor).

We use it with a Sony HXR-NX70U NXCAM and it works well at a fraction of the cost of the Sony remote.

It works on all Sony Camera with LANC port. It works on my Sony NX-5U and Sony FS100

I have Sony NEX-5. I believe you go into functions and in that menu should be a remote icon. This will allow the camera to be controlled by the remote. Works perfectly after that.

The remote connects to the camera with either a mini plug (LANC) or through an included adapter that has a Sony A/V R connector that looks like a circle with a flat side. Kind of like a flat tire. I didn't see one of those interfaces listed in the CX 240 manual. I'm guessing no. Look behind the doors on your camera to see if it is hiding there. I've got a CX-160. It has the interface. Looks like the newer cameras moved on to multiple USBs.

I don't know. I have an A77, so all my research has been based around my equipment. You can go to Sony's web site and look up your camera, then check and see if the remote is listed as one of the optional accessories. I do believe this is the most common remote for most of the cameras they offer.

I believe this will work with nearly all Sony car stereo's with it, it may just be missing some functions of specified remotes

It should work with Sony's new Alpha cameras with an ISO hot shoe. Note there are electronic contacts beneath the camera hot shoe that these adaptor engages/interfaces with.

We never heard of this controller so we did a little research, and found that the controller carries CAT5 port; this doesn't match the BNC video port on our camera. Therefore we'll say no this camera won't work with the controller.

I think not, this adapter is designed to allow use of Sony Alpha lenses on a Sony NEX camera body. So the connections are the reverse of what you want.

I don't know if it will work with your specific camera, but I have 2 Sony videocams and it works equally well with both. If your camera has a LANC female input, it should work. (it's a "D" shaped receptacle with the flat side up on both my cameras)

I also own a Sony RX10 and the remote cable release - yep, it works fine. Good luck!

I am using it on a different alpha series sony camera with great results. I imagine it would be compatible with the whole alpha series as the connectors on your camera look just like mine!
