gq1nyc Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I was curious to fins out if there was anywhere to get really used lenses. Or perhaps is there a program that will let you test out lenses. I'm looking to find lenses to experiment with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck_parr Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 There are several reputable internet companies where you can rent lenses for periods of a week or longer at reasonable rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gq1nyc Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 Thanks everyone. Does 35mm lenses work with digital cameras? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah_fox Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 "Does 35mm lenses work with digital cameras?" Absolutely! Some lenses are "digitally optimized," meaning mostly that they have a bit better a coating on the rear element to prevent reflection off of the sensor from bouncing back to the sensor. However, this is only a minor issue. In Canon lenses, you're talking about the EF lenses, as opposed to the EF-S, which are digital crop-frame only. You can also adapt a variety of other lenses, with a notable exception that you can't adapt an old Canon FD lens. In my experience, Ebay is a good source for vintage lenses.
