There might be a work around but I wouldn't reccomend it. The old lenses are simply not made to work very well with modern digital sensors. You do see people using the old lenses but usually to achieve a particular feel or effect. One that you could most likely achieve in post if you really wanted to. Any solution you come up with will certainly not enable all capabilities of the modern dslr bodies in term of auto focus and various metering modes. Lens coating have improved hugely over the years and computer assisted designs have made optics possible that couldn't be considered years ago. Massive amount of maths go into the design of modern multi element lenses and huge computing power is needed.

Kinda what I was thinking... probably just not worth the effort...

 

Oh well, guess I have to keep a look out for a longer lens now... :whistling:

Heaven right there. I need a bush fix too, haven't been out since my last trip to Madikwe in April.
