So I use with Sony NEX-7 with LA-EA2 adapter, the steady shot feature not on and is there a way to turn on steady shot feature ?

Hi Lieu, the lens can be connected to the camera without the adapter and the Steadyshot function can be turned on. Thanks_Mitch

For some reason, Canon seems to use FULL TIME Continuous AF - which is active even when you're not touching anything - and turned it on by default. Very annoying feature. I didn't realize this either until I popped on a noisy EF lens and it just wouldn't stop auto-focusing. I suspect Canon decided this would somehow make the camera "easier to use".

That is correct. The NEX-7 has the old style hot shoe. This version has the new MultiInterface Hot Shoe (MI). They sell this same product with the old style auto-lock fitting... But, Sony is moving all their cameras to the new style MI shoe. You might be better off with an adapter. Your next camera from Sony (maybe NEX-8 or something) will have the MI shoe. That is the direction everything is moving.

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

Is it Fullframe? Yes. Will it work on the a7? If you use LA-EA3 or LA-EA4 adapters with the a7, it will work.

I own a Sony NEX-5R and in the setup menu you have to go to "release w/o lens" and it must be set to 'enable'. That's how I got my adapter to work even though I don't own one like the version pictured. Good luck!

This adapter will let you but you will lose all electronic connections, if you can afford it get one of the Sony LAEA adapters. THey provide electronic pass thru and all autofocus features. I have both and use them with the NEX-6 and I prefer the LAEA by far.

You will have to get an adapter to fit the A mount lenses onto the E mount Nex camera. Sony discontinued the lower cost adapter but maybe you could find it here on Amazon (Alpha mount adaptor LA-EA1 )

I have a Sony A200 and it works great with it. Sorry no experience with Nex 7

The NEX-7 uses E-mount lenses, this lens is an A-mount and therefore will not work directly on the NEX-7.

Hi, you need LA-EA1 or LA-EA2 to attach sony 55-300mm DT a -mount lens to any nex camera because nex has e-mount.

I do not know about an adapter. I have the NEX-3. Sorry I cannot be of assistance. Might want to contact Sony.

Not without the LA-EA1 or LA-EA2 Adapter. The 55-300 is an "alpha" mount lens and the A3000 has an E-mount. The closest you will get to a "native" e-mount zoom telephoto for this camera is the 55-210 zoom, which I have found to be a very good lens used with an NEX-5n camera. The 55-300 is an excellent, reasonably priced alpha mount lens, but it does not have "optical steady shot" built-in like the 55-210 E-mount zoom telephoto, so in addition to the cost of the adapter, you would need to use higher shutter speeds / higher ISO settings to minimize image blur when hand-held, particularly with lower ambient light levels.

Put the lens on a NEX body, go to Version in the Setup menu, and see if it reads .02. If so it came from a fresh batch from Sony with the current firmware. If not, the lens currently has to go back to Sony for a firmware update.Hope that helps. . .

Default is for Steady Shot to be on. Go to Still Image menu 2 and you will see Steady Shot and just turn it off as you would if camera were on a tripod.

You can purchase a Sony LA-EA1 or LA-EA2 adapter for true A mount to E mount cameras. Sony has also released a version LA-EA3 and LA-EA4 but not sure on true compatability for your Nex6.
