Canon SLR Lenses.Interchangeable with Canon D SLR ?
By adminI have an old canon EOS 10 SLR with ULTRA SONIC Gold lenses.Can these be used on a Canon EOS 10 D SLR.Or do the lenses have to be digital specific?
Cheers Dave

Hi!
Try and ask your dealer.

The lenses for your EOS 35mm Canon will work just fine on your Digital EOS Canon. Just be aware that the sensor chip on the digital cameras are smaller than 35mm. Because of this, the effective focal length of each lens is multiplied by a factor of 1.5.
For example, a 50mm lens used on a Canon DSLR will give you the view of a 75mm lens. An 80-200mm becomes a 120-300mm.
To see the actual effect, bring your old Canon and your lenses into a camera store. You should be able to try your lenses on the display digital Canons and see the effect, as well as check the compatibility.
I hope this helps.

Yes. I use my lenses with both my slr and dslr. George is right about the focal length but this is not a problem.
