I was trying to use an old lens that I had purchased for my film camera while I was stationed in Japan. It is 45 years old but still able to take a pretty good picture. They sell lens adapters for almost all the major brands, in this case Minolta to Canon. The only draw back to doing this is  you have to set the f stop on the lens itself , there is no  connection between lens and camera. So,  I would take a shot and check the LCD for exposure, make my adjustments and repeat until I was close. Anyway I need  a lot more practice or a new lens?
