- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
yes but unfortunately you quote my error that i just edited from reading the wikipedia.
it is badly explained.. SR is used to describe a family of mounts,
however SR (pre 1961) is incompatible with post-1961 bodies.
unless a lens has MC or MD written on it - avoid it.
the statement all manual focuse lenses are forward/backward compatible is therefore
not strictly correct. a pre-1961 lens may not fit your X-700. an MC or MD will fit.
an A-mount (the mount sony alpha DSLRs use) is a totally different mount..
will not fit an X-700.
confused?..you will be, after another episode of... 'Konica Minolta'.. )
look.. throw the bloody thing away and buy a nikon =D
