The hot shoe adapter is perfect. I use it on my Alpha 200 and the Alpha 77. It is small, reliably dissolves the flash, fits like a glove and shakes not (even with large and heavy flash units not) .By the small button on the side, he snapped "bombproof 'and does not slide from the camera. I had this problem with my old hot shoe adapter, whenever I had directed the lens upward, slipped the shoe including flash of the camera and was thrown very quickly in the trash as a result.
Conclusion: Works flawlessly, no matter what flash, no matter what position you are photographing.
