Digital Cameras Zoom Lenses
reg slr lenses & digital cameras?
I have an Olympus OMG – with a macro, a zoom and the standard lens – I want to go digital – was looking at Olympus bodies – but do the regular lenses work ok with the digital cameras? I mostly do macro shots – flowers, bugs, etc but also need to do close up of small pieces of art (2×3″) that I want to put online – and want to be able to have poster size prints made of some things. I should also note: I live on an extremely limited income and will be borrowing some $ to be able to do this –
Thank you for your help.
I know I can use an adapter ring to use them on the digital camera – just wondering if anyone had actually done this and what the quality of the results were?
guess I should have made it clearer that I already know I can use the adapter with the lenses – ($90) but was wondering if anyone had done this and what they are finding to be problems if any.
Unfortunately Olympus completely redesigned their camera system for their new DSLRs to use the smaller Panasonic four thirds sensor.
This means your older lenses for their film SLRs are not compatible with the new DSLRs.

Canon 17-40mm f/4.0L USM AF Ultra Wide Zoom Lens $779 Canon 8806A002 17-40mm F4.0 L USM AF EF Lens is a new and affordable L-series ultra-wide-angle zoom lens that’s ideal for both film and digital SLRs. Superior optics are assured by the use of three aspherical lens elements, in addition to a Super UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) glass element. Optical coatings are optimized for use with digital cameras. This lens focuses as close as 11 inches (0.28m), and offers both Canon’s full-time manual focus and a powerful ring-type USM for fast and silent AF. It has a constant f/4 maximum aperture, and offers the choice of screw-in 77mm filters or a holder in the rear of the lens for up to three gel filters. Finally, it offers weather-resistant construction similar to other high-end L-series lenses. |

Canon EF-S 17-55mm f2.8 IS USM Wide Angle Zoom Lens $1099 This lens was designed for the Canon Digital Rebel, EOS Digital Rebel XT, EOS 30D and EOS 20D Digital SLRs, and will only work with these cameras. The Canon 1242B002 EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM offers image quality on a par with Canon’s highly regarded L-series lenses. It has a large maximum aperture which, combined with higher shutter speeds can minimize subject motion blur. Shallow depth-of-field separation of a subject from its background is much easier to achieve and the f/2.8 maximum aperture allows a bright finder and extremely precise focusing with f/2.8 compatible AF sensors. The internal stabilization has a sharpness benefit equivalent to a three-stop faster shutter speed, making this lens outstanding in low light situations. Smaller and lighter than lenses of similar specifications, the EF-S 17-55 mm f/2.8 IS USM lens has a 35mm equivalent focal length of 27-88mm and is compatible only with the EOS 30D, EOS 20D, EOS Digital Rebel XT and EOS Digital Rebel SLRs. ? 17-55mm Zoom Range Equivalent to 27-88mm in 35mm Format ? Ultrasonic (USM) motor for silent auto focusing operation and very quick focus even in low-light conditions ? Image Stabilization Technology ? Two Ultra-Low Dispersion UD Glass Lens Elements for excellent color rendition ? Three Aspherical Lens Elements to eliminate spherical aberration ? Optimized Lens Coating for Digital Cameras ? Compatible models: EOS 30D, EOS 20D, EOS Digital Rebel XT, EOS |
