Maxxum Lenses on a Sony A200



I just ordered an A200, based on the reports that it will accept my Maxxum
lenses. These are actually Sigma lenses that I bought when I bought my
Maxxum 7000 back in the 80's.

Does anyone have any direct experience using these lenses on an A200?

Sigma AF f=400mm
Sigma AF Zoom f=75~200mm
Sigma AF Zoom f=28~70mm

I also have a 2x converter and a 300mm mirror with T adapter for the Maxxum.
