SOURCE: QUANTARAY FOR MINOLTA AF 70-300MM compatibility
Usually mounts are unique to a camera manufacturer. There are exceptions. Sony has the Alpha; lenses for the Konica-Minolta are the same mount. Your AF (autofocus) lens will work on it. You might also consider picking up a Konica Minolta 5D or 7D.....they're no longer made and hence are cheaply had.
The MD and Rokkor lenses won't work on the Sony Alpha.
THIS IS A CHEAP LENS (<$50 VALUE) SO I WOULDN'T LET IT DRIVE YOUR DECISIONS!!
SOURCE: Sony A100 compatible lenses
Virtually all the old Minolta lenses are compatible with the new Sony SLRs.
For the two you mention, you will need to check whether the lenses are the AF or MF versions.
Both will fit, but AF is the auto-focus one, and MF is (obviously!) manual-focus.
If you want a definitive list with tech details on ALL the Minolta / Sony lenses, look here:

Hey arnelsartwor,
To set both exposure and flash bracketing you need to press the drive mode button, and then use the up/down arrows to select bracketing and then use the right/left arrows to highlight the drive mode option and then press the center button to select the desired drive mode. These instructions are on page 50 of your user manual. I hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Allan
Go Ahead. Use Us.

It seems that you may have an older sigma lens which does not have the appropriate electrical connections. Sigma can modify this for you if you contact them, and I believe the cost is reasonable. Although some lenses look very similar, there are electrical differences between earlier and newer lenses, even though they may fit on to your camera mechanically,
