a question about a lense

[4david]

I decided to sell my film camera canon eos elan 2.

i went on line to see what i could possibley ask for it and I ran accross people using my lense on digital cameras

its a tamron 710 E - i really like the lens - it would be great to continue using the lense

thanks

is it possible that i could use this lense on a newer digital?

Since the Elan 2 uses the Canon EF lens mount the answer is yes.

Yes- I had a chance to use a very old film EF lens on my T1i, and it worked well. The obvious downsides were the lack of image stabilization, and the fact this is a full manual lens. But if the glass is of high quality, it might be worthwhile to keep.
