Are these filters really for the sony nex cameras or do you need to use an adapter? Are there any better alternatives if they use an adapter?

Any 49mm filter will fit any 49mm dia. lens. You may be thinking about using a different lens on a different camera like a Nikon lens on a Canon camera

I use a Sony alpha and that is the mount available. There is an adapter availabile for the NEx mounts. Check with Sony.

The filter will go on front of whatever lens you attach to the Nex7. You would need to check the filter thread to see the size. This is a great protective filter for your lens.

I have no idea but my mic has both a standard hot shoe plus and adaptor so it will work on Sony Nex (I have a 7) model cameras which have a proprietary hot shoe design.

Hey A.M.M Arguello, I noticed in your initial post you mentioned you have the NEX-3 camera. I also noticed in your last post that you ordered the 55-210 mm zoom lense. Have you had a chance to use the 55-210 mm zoom lense with your NEX-3 yet? Have you had any problems? I only ask because on the sony website this lense does not list the NEX-3 as a compatible camera. However I think this has to do with the fact that the NEX-3 was technically a discontinued model when this lense was released. Any first hand experience you can provide would be much appreciated.

Look under your lens cap. Look at the MM size. Unless you have some alien camera, then these 58mm filters should work. IF your lens size is 58mm. You can use whatever brand of camera you like with these filters. Sometimes it's easy to just get an adapter (called a step-up ring, or step-down ring). Just remember, the more lenses you stack on top of each other, the darker corners you'll get on your photos, because your camera will be looking through a long tube of lenses and filters. Also, Melanie is a nice name. ^_^ Update- ensure the part you wish to connect a filter to, is threaded so you can screw the filter onto it. if you wish to intercept a smart lens or zooming lens, then the filter will make it very slightly harder for the zooming lens to get an accurate focus. it's kind of trial and error. One more update! These filters are threaded on both sides, so anything can screw onto them.

Any adapter for NEX works with the a6000, they all are e-mount type including the newer a7 series with full size sensors.

I just bought this Phottix Odin. If your camera is a6000, it requires a SONY Multi-interface Adapter Shoe. I got frustrated because I didn't know this and I missed some opportunities. Hoping Phottix will be more informative on their Sony products or atleast they had offer an adapter shoe bundle.

The adapter provides no electrical connection between the camera and the lens - the camera really thinks there's no lens attached! I have a Sony NEX-6, and I solved the problem (with help from another customer) by going to the camera's menu, selecting "Setup", then scrolling until I found "Release w/o Lens". Click on that option to enable it, and the camera will shoot. Of course, with the adapter there's no autofocus or aperture control - you have to do those on your own. But it works fine!

The Nex 6 has a standard hot shoe I think. This adapter is made for older Next models that used Sony's proprietary hot shoe. You shouldn't need an adapter for the Nex 6 and a standard remote trigger should work.

This is made to work with the old screw mount Pentax-type lenses on the Sony Nex camera. You screw the old lens into the adapter and then mount the adapter onto the NEX camera. You will lose the auto focusing feature, but the viewfinder will show when the lens is in focus as you manually focus it. You must also take the lens off the "auto" setting, and manually select the f-stop, but the camera will select the proper shutter speed for you, so it's kind of like having auto-exposure.

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.

Hi, I'm sorry. I am no expert on these lenses.. I bought it, on amazon, after discovering it was compatible with the Sony NEX5R that I bought... I have no other knowledge about them. Good luck...

I ended up having the adapter from previous filters and it worked with these. Just recycle them and you will be fine.

Yes they work great on any lens you have the adaptor size for. The filters are there to enhance your photos of your image. I personally use the Graduated ND for sunrises or in the snow when you have a distinct separation of light and darks to help ontain corrct exposure. There are many uses for these filters. Have fun being creative.

Looking online - it states the Sony NEX6 16-50mm lens takes tiny non-standard 40.5mm filters. so a 49mm filter won't fit without some kind of adapter ring. something like his40.5mm-49mm Step-Up Adapter Ring (40.5mm Lens to 49mm Accessory) + MagicFiber Microfiber Lens Cleaning Clothor - you could just get 40.5mm close up lenses... such as 40.5mm Digital High-Resolution Close-Up Macro Filter Set (+1, +2, +4, and +10 Diopters) with Deluxe Filter Carry Case for Select Olympus Products.
