Hello,
I am a total beginner. I have an old Contax 167MT 35mm in brand new condition that I recently found in storage. It currently has no lens, just the body.
I will be going on a safari in July. Since I'm totally new to this, and I'm not ready to pour a ton of money into it just yet, I'm looking to rent a lens. From what I've read a 300 or 400mm lens would be ideal for a safari. I looked at many sites that rent lenses, but none of them rent contax. Can I use any (Canon, Nikon, etc) lens on my camera, or do I need an adapter? Anything else I should keep in mind for the safari/renting a lens?
Thanks
