I'm completely confused about Sony lenses. Will this 55-300 lens work with the Sony A3000 camera?

No, it doesn't. This lens is for A-mount cameras. The A3000 (and also Nex and A6000) are E-mount cameras.

There is an A(lpha) mount and an E mount. you can adapt A mount lenses to work on E but not the other way. it looks like the A3000 uses the E mount lenses, so you need the Alpha mount adapter. I would check to make sure you get the right one but sony lists the adapter for 199.99. So technically you can use it but it will cost an extra $200 to. make it work.

. The A3000 is compatible with Sony's growing selection of E-mount lenses; smaller, lighter and designed specifically for Sony's compact interchangeable lens cameras (NEX). With that said, I would focus on sony E mount lens. The 55-300 in question is made for the larger framed Sony SLR camera. You should be able to find something similar in an E mount.

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.

The Sony A3000 has the same lens fitting as the NEX cameras. They are not compatible with any Minolta lens or Sony Alpha lens. Even if the lens adapter allows you attach the lens, none of the lens movements are conveyed to the camera body to allow for automatic focus, aperture, or zoom.

I'm not quite sure exactly what you are asking. If you order it with the Sony bayonet mount it will fit the a55. It is a complete lens not just an adapter lens which fits onto the front of your existing lens, and it takes a 72mm filter because it has a larger aperture, and is only manual focus.

Hi, your Sony Alpha 3500 is an A-mouth body type camera in which it is compatible with any Sony A-mouth lens such as SAL75300. It will work perfectly. -Ely

I found out that it worked with my A300 dslr. It even works with my A77 slr. It looks really small but it should do the trick and work for you.

I have the a57, this is a standard Sony lens. It should work with your camera just fine.

The lens "does" work on a K30. I used the lens on my K30 for years. I have no idea why Amazon says otherwise.

On the A55 & A65 Cameras the Sony lens are inter-changeable.With this said ... what I did note with my A55 unit, going back a couple of years, was that some 'auto' features ( were not available ) when trying to use another manufacturers lens ( something to do with the 'pin line up' ). Accordingly ... I choice to order the Sony lens at that time.

Every Minolta AF lens will fit and work. Minolta started producing Auto-Focus lenses around 1985 and then Sony acquired Minolta a few years ago. Avoid the pre-'85 MD and MC mount lenses. Carl Zeiss also make lenses for Sony and they have a Sony badge on them. Sony owns shares in Tamron, there are plenty of Sony mount Tamron lenses. Tokina also produce lenses for the Sony mount. Sigma is the next one, however Sigma don't license the micro chips embedded in lenses and Sony have made a change to the lens mount chip on the A33/35/55. Sigma's existing lenses may not be fully compatible with the A33/A35/A55, the error that pops up is a rare minor irritation and easily resolved though. If you are buying a new Sigma lens, ensure that it states on the box that it is compatible with the A33/A55 SLT cameras, I have a new Sigma lens with that logo on the box. If you have a problem with a Sigma lens, you may need to return it to Sigma so that they can re-chip it for free if you have proof or purchase, or a small fee without. Edit: Sigma HSM lenses, including A33/55 compatible ones, require a further update to correct autofocus lens issues on the A65/77. There are HUNDREDS of Sony fit lenses.

Hi Justin, Sony SAL55200 Lens will work on the A5100 camera as long as you use a Sony LAEA3 or LAEA4 Lens Mount Adaptor. -Vincent

It appears that compatibility is based on whether the lens is an "A mount" or an "E mount" with "a" meaning alpha. So, they should be compatible due to both being members of the "alpha" family. This seems to apply to accessories as well. To be certain, however, I would refer to the Sony website where you can view camera compatibility with specific lenses and accessories. I know there are reasonably priced flash adapters, if necessary.

It works on my Sony a390. It will fit on any "A" type lens mount, even my old 35mm Minolta. The description clearly states that it is an "A" mount. A 2-second search on the internet shows that your a330 is also an "A" mount. Go figure.......

I'm not a Sony-savvy user but there is no crop with the adapter using the A-Mount 70-300mm with my A7. In other words, Sony lenses designed for fukl frame cameras remain full frame on the A7 with the adapter. I think I'm correct but others may know better.

This camera accepts all Sony E-mount lenses! It is also sold with and optional 18-200mm PZ lens. Any lens that works with the Sony NEX series and their new E-mount alpha series will work with the NEX-VG30 without the need for an adaptor.

I don't have the NX3000, I have a previous model. But since the lens all work, I would assume the adapter will work too. I've used the adapter on my camera with no issues.
