Can I interchange Canon lenses betw/ my DSLR and Film SLR camera?
I have two Canon Rebel SLR cameras. One is digital (about 2 1/2 years old) and the other is about 4 years old and is a film camera. I just realized that my 28-80 lens from my film camera seems to fit on my digital SLR. Is it okay to put it on there? Is there a reason why I should or should not? Thank you for any advice.
I’m trying to select the best answer but something is wrong -it’s not letting me?!?!?
You certainly can use the lenses from your film camera on your digital. As long as they are an EOS mount lens. All Canon cameras and lenses from 1987 on will be EOS mount.
You can not however use the EFs lens that came with your digital SLR on your film camera. It would cause vignetting and could damage the mirror on your film camera. The EFs lenses are specifically designed for the crop sensor DSLR’s.
Typically most people will only have one or two EFs lenses though. The 18-55mm lens that comes with the camera and maybe a 10-22mm wide angle lens. Most other lenses will be the EF lenses and will work on both film and digital.
Bottom line is you can use all EOS lenses on your digital both EF and EFs. On your film you can only use the EF lenses.
Hope this explains everything for you.
