Greetings,
I recently won one of those Goodwill auctions and picked up some older film cameras and lenses. The package included nine pieces, three Canon Rebel cameras and six various lenses. I just assumed that the lenses fit the cameras. Boy was I wrong. Only one of the lenses fit the cameras and all the others are quite different. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction regarding whether or not an adapter exists that could possibly pair these lenses to the cameras. If not, I have no idea of the value of the lenses and if anyone would consider purchasing them. The only lens that can be mounted to all three bodies is the Quantaray 28-80mm. The others all seem to have similar fittings. Something that seems rather odd is, I can't find a selector for manual or auto-focus. The lenses appear to be rather old, as one of them is from JCPenney, of all places.
Thanks for reading.
Cameras: EOS Rebel G, EOS Rebel, EOS Rebel X S
Lenses: Chinar f135mm f/2.8, Quantaray 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6, Quantaray 80-200mm f/3.8, Soligor 135mm f/2.8, Bell & Howell 28mm f/2.8, JCPenney 75-300mm f/5.6
