Would I be able to use a digital SLR camera lens for different camera makers?
I have an Olympus E420 camera that I recieved as a gift from my parents on my birthday last year. To be honest, It just doesn’t appeal to me that much and after playing around with my friends Canon T1I Rebel EOS, I’ve decided that I want to look into purchasing one with my own funds. The only concern I have is that I’m not exactly willing to pay $1000+ for the camera itself and also the camera lens that comes with it.
The reason being is because for christmas, my dad got me a really nice 40-150 MM lens. (I also have a 14-42 MM lens that came with my Olympus). The only problem is that my lens’ are both by the camera maker Olympus. Would it be possible to just buy a Canon camera body, and still be able to use my Olympus lens’ so I wouldnt have to shell out the extra cash?
Thanks!
Not without an adapter. Each camera manufacturer uses a proprietary lens mount geometry, thus effectively restricting one to a particular brand.
Having never used such an adapter, I cannot comment on them.
