- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I have a 20+ year old Canon EOS A2 that I broke and then put away and forgot about as I moved away from photography and started to get into other things.
I have 3 lenses with that, one more than I thought, all Canon lenses, and I'm not sure how good they are, or how good they would be on a modern Canon DSLR, if they fit and the autofucus works. (and someone mentioned in another thread there might be aperture issues with a new DSLR body and older lenses intended for a Canon 35mm film SLR)
The lenses are:
Canon EF 85mm 1:1.8
Canon EF 28-105mm 1:3.5-4.5
Canon EF 70-210mm 1:4
I don't know if this glass is compatible or good enough to build around or if I should just sell for whatever I can get and start over...
but it looks like I now have the option to build around these lenses.
I just don't want to do it if the lenses are less than good or if they will give me problems with a new Canon DSLR.
I also don't want to be tied down to that simply because I have them if there is a better way to go...
and so if I sold these lenses, depending on what I can get for them, perhaps I can up my budget for my next camera and lenses, whatever way I go.
Thoughts?
