Is there some form of converter for FD lenses that fitted on an old CANON AE-1 body?
I bought all these awesome lenses for my old canon ae-1 and now need a converter. What new digital camera body works with the old lenses? Theyre in excellent shape. I keep hearing mixed reviews about converters that either they do exist or they dont or if they do exist you loose quality. Where can I get a converter and what digital body is compatible with FD lenses?
thanks for your help!
No new camera has worked with FD lenses since Canon switched to the EF lens mount in 1987. They use the EF mount for their digital line, too. Converters exist but they’re generally not worth wile. Here’s more on that: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=57023
If you do decide to use a converter, also know that none of the dSLR models have a split prism focussing screen. You CAN oder one seperately however. A company called Katz Eye Optics sells them for around $100 and they get good user reviews in various forums.
