4 Responses to “Can Canon Eos Fitting Lenses Supplied With 35mm Canon Camera Be Used With Eos Fitting Digital Camera?”
Any Canon EF mount lens (as supplied with Canon EOS film cameras since launch in 1988) will mount and operate on any canon EOS digital SLR.
Depending on the model of DSLR there may be a converison factor to take into account. If you buy a rebel, 50D or EOS 1D Mk3 then there is a cropping factor, in practise you gain on the telephoto end (get in closer) but lose on the wide angle (not quite as wide angle)
The Rebels (1000d, 450D, 500D) & 50D have a conversion factor of 1.6x.
This means that a nice wide angle like a 24mm becomes more like a mundane 38mm. But a boring standard 50mm becomes an 80mm, a great portrait lens.
The EOS 1D Mk3 (not 1Ds Mk3) has a crop factor of 1.3x. Slightly less wide angle, slightly more telephoto.
Right this is a tad complex.
ALL CANON MADE EF mount lenses will fit and function on all ALL CANON EOS cameras. If it doesn’t AF and AE then it’s broken.
Any Canon EF-S manufactured lenses will NOT fit Canon any 35mm SLRs, or any DSLR BEFORE the 300D.
Additionally, some early third party lenses, particularly Sigma’s earlier ones have issues functioning on digital bodies, however they will fit fine. Basically try out old third party lenses, they may not have functional AF on certain digital models.
Finally – some APS-C lenses from third party manufacturers (e.g. Tokina 11-16mm) are RUMOURED to fit full frame and 35mm bodies, however you will be trying at your own risk.
All Canon EF lenses will fit all the Canon digital camera bodies
EF-S lenses will only fit those that are ASPC
Simple answer, try it.
