I Purchased this item, for some reason I though I fitted on my NEX 7. The socket is different... do you know if there is an adaptor I could use? THX

You're out of luck --- here's a page from Sony that lists adapters (at bottom of the page for NEX) --- unfortunately I think the NEX 6/7 are referred to as the first Alpha type camera....so the NEX-3/5 items don't work. But it appears that the 6/7 have a much wider variety of flashes than the strange/proprietary mounts on the 3/5.http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/support-info.pl?info_id=634&mdl;=SLTA58

send it back and get the more expensive flash - I bought this one and the next one up and wasn't happy- now i'm wonderfully happy with my HVL-F43am and it fits perfectly!!

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

I own an Alpha model. If the NEX has the same shoe it will NOT work. Do yourself a favor and buy a Sony. I did could not be happier. Youcan get some decent deals on Ebay.Harry

Hi! NEX-7 cameras uses E-mount lenses (e.g. SEL1855) in which if you have an A-mount lens (SAL1855) you needed an adaptor to make it work. You may use the Sony A-mount to E mount lens adaptor (LA-EA) and currently there are 4 available varieties for this adaptor. You may check on the link below for a detailed information that will suit your preferences. Hope this helps.

Hi Sebastian, you can use the lens with the NEX6 with the use of an adapter. Thanks_Mitch

I am not sure because I am using sony nex 3. I think you can try. If it doesn't fit with yours, at least you can return it.

Dear Rachelle, I have the same camera (NEX5) and it's needs, but I do not see the E-mount here. It means we (NEX-owners) are needing something like LAEA1 Mount Adaptor ;)

bought an adapter for my NEX to use with my Canon glass. Googled and saw them for A-mount as well.

I have a NEX-7 so guess they are similar. I have to go into the Drive mode in the Camera menu and set it to the IR commander mode. My guess is that you have to go into one of your camera's menus and program it to accept the IR Commander. Your user manual should tell you what you have to do. Or a nearby camera shop could also help. Hope this helped.

I don't know the answer. I have it on my NEX7. It is beautifully made and very useable.

This lent worked with my Sony Nex 7 as long I use the adapter LA-EA2. BY THE WAY I WAS NOT IMPRESS WITH OPTEKA 500-1000

The adaptor was designed for the Sony compact flash with a different shoe contacts to an ISO standard hot shoe on NEX-6 and 7. I believe the NEX-5 will accept an external flash or optical LED finder with a different interface.

Yes I think it is perfect for the NEX 7. Of course without XLR audio it is just a mic. Be careful easy to leave mic on burn battery. Tom

I would assume so, it comes with several adapters from 49 to 82mm. Depending on the size of your lens there should be one that fits. I saw one Nex7 with a 49mm lens so it should work fine. Just thread the adapter on, slide the filter holder on and slide in the ND filter/s you want and click away.

I'm sorry, I really don't know. I bought it to use on my new Sony NEX 6 and it works very well, but I did have to purchase and adapter to make it fit.

Unfortunately it is not, this adapter is only compatible with cameras featuring the Sony/Minolta Iiso hotshoe. For your nex this product is available Fotasy ShoeNEX Hot Shoe Adapter for Sony NEX NEX-3 NEX-5 NEX-C3 NEX-5N NEX-F3 NEX-5R Cameras with Premier Lens (Black) though I would be careful using flashes directly on it as it could short circuit your camera. I think that product was mainly designed for wireless triggers. Hope this helps!

I have a NEX 6 so don't know if this will work for a NEX 7. But for my camera, I went to the Menu, chose 'Setup' and then chose the "Relsease w/o lens' option as advised by Rokinon support staff and it worked fine...good luck
