Have just bought one panicked when my old K mount adaptall Tamron lenses wouldn't work, read the book.The control menu allows you to set aperture ring to activate and it works with my old lenses, they say that the functions are limited, I am still learning so limitations not known, all 35mm lenses have a factor that decreases the wide angle ability and increses the zoom factor this camera is 1:1.5 really expensive bodies are 1:1 $6000 + .


It came with a Sigma 18/50 auto focus (digital purpose built)seems quite Ok. Will now try it on my 114 and 200mm 'scopes when I get them back together, I was showing someone a photo in the Jan/Feb Sky & Space magazine, the one with the Asian lady on the cover with a Meade. It has a great article on astro photography plus a free download site for matching scope to camera for deep space stuff, my Tamron lenses were bought in '84 and were tested taking photos of flowers with the DSLR results auger well for good photos whatever they are of.
