Short Sony Alpha History

The Sony Alpha camera system was first introduced on 5 June 2006 with the launch of the Sony DSLR-A100 that expanded upon the Konica Minolta camera technologies whose assets were acquired by Sony in early 2006.

Prior to the acquisition by Sony, the Alpha branding had already been used on the Japanese market by Minolta for their AF camera system (marketed as “Dynax” in Europe, and “Maxxum” in North America).

Sony adopted the name “A-mount system” for the Minolta AF lens mount and retained this in their new SLR range.

In May 2010, Sony introduced two Alpha NEX (New E-mount Experience) mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras, the Nex 3 and the Nex 5. Both cameras featured new proprietary Sony E-mount technology, and so the current E-mount system was born.

About Timothy Mayo

I love shooting wildlife the most but will happily point my camera at pretty much anything. I started Alpha Shooters in 2017 to share my own photographic journey and experiences shooting with Sony Alpha. The site has since evolved into a popular community and resource. You can also find out more about my story here or follow me on Instagram if you wish. I also have a YouTube Channel but haven't published much content over the past year due to spending more time changing smelly nappies and also launching our community forums. However, I do plan to get back to creating content for YouTube in 2021!
