Legacy Lens Compatibilty Question
I want to make the move into a Digital SLR.
I've inherited a 35mm Minolta X-370 SLR camera body and two lenses from a relative. I was wondering if the two lenses were worth keeping and if they could be put on one of todays Digital SLR's. I don't know much about the lenses, the two I have read this Lens 1: FIVE STAR MC AUTO ZOOM No. K8606826 1:3.5-4.8 35-75mm 550 (the last zero has a kine through it) Lens 2: FIVE STAR MC AUTO MACRO ZOOM No. K8645967 1:4.5 75-200mm 520 (the last zero has a kine through it) Lens 3... it's about a foot long super telescope of some kind. I don't plan on using it. If these lenses will work on a new Digital SLR, it may play on my purchasing decision. I imagine this is a long shot, lens tech btw old 35mm and a new SLR is probably drastically different. Thoughts.. opinions? pb |
