Highly Useful and Inexpensive by Rachel L. Scala (Flagstaff, Arizona) 5 Stars

I've had a Sony Alpha for a few years that I could never use with my studio lights because the Alpha wouldn't take a hot shoe. What a relief to find this adapter, for less than ten bucks, and with a button that lets the flash assembly come on and off with no fuss at all. Now my Sony can be used in the studio in a professional capacity as well as for landscapes and snapshots.

Small, cheap, effective by Steven Walls (NYC) 4 Stars

Sony do a lot of things write when it comes to DSLR, but that Minolta hot-shoe attachment can be a real pain when you're working in a studio and trying to fire off a bunch of studio flashes. The Sony answer comes at a hefty price... this version is simpler, smaller, cheaper and just as effective. Simple to use, universally accepted (so far) and small (a previous, borrowed version had cut into my cheek) this was as good a buy as I've made this year

didn't work with my flash by Carine Williams 3 Stars

I was trying to use an older flash and it wouldn't work with it. I returned it because since I had to buy a flash, I will get a minolta compatible one. Cost me a total of $13.00 shipping because I had to pay both ways.

Works Great by David Johnson 4 Stars

The Seagull SC-5 Hotshoe adapter works just as well as the Sony/Minolta adapter. For a whole lot less money. Processing and shipping of the item could have been a little quicker
