Well it is all pretty straight forward!.

* Does it fit on your camera!? If in doubt take your camera and lenses into a camera store !.!.!. they will help you
* The 28 mm, while a medium wide angle lens on a 35 mm SRL, the equivalent lens on your Sony would be 18 mm!. The filed of view of the 28 mm will be like a 42 mm, not a wide angle but not nearly the "normal" focal length of 50 mm either!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes you can use it on your Sony DSLR!. In fact, every legacy Minolta Maxxum AF lens made since 1985 can be used on your Sony DSLR!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
