Bitten by the bug

[mow cop]

Hello everyone

A new member with a new camera (Well almost got it)

I have been away from serious photography for about 10 years, and last week got bitten again.

I have completely missed the auto focus era and have returned with a 20D.

All of my 35mm equipment is manual focus (T90,A1)

My question is : Will I be able to use some of my macro equipment on the D20 body? It is a auto bellows and ring light for the T90 (EF mount) is there any way of converting the EF mount on the bellows to fit the digital?

Maybe a Canon FD adaptor??

Not too sure...............a few members here have used thier old Canon lenses on an EF mount. In any case, you're probably better off just investing in a few EF lenses to reap all the benefits your 20D can offer.

Good luck on your purchase!!! :-)

Hi Alan,. welcome to the forum :)

The 20D is an EF lens capable camera.. all modern Canon camera's use the EF mount.

I'm guessing your bellows is an FD mount?

Checky out the -=READ FIRST=- EOS Sticky at the top of the EOS forum,. there you will find a link to a thread dedicated to adapting FD and other lenses to work with your new EOS camera ;) Lot's of good info there. :)

Hi New guy here. I got a 20D about four months ago. Having a lot of old FD lens, I thought I would get the EOS body to FD lens adapter. :lol: It was not cheap. It screwed onto the EOS body just fine, I never could get it to screw onto the FD lens so I sent it back to B&H.:evil:

I do not think the ring light will work on the 20D. Thats what Canon and a few others say

I was mistaken about the ring flash not working with the Canon ML-3 ring flash. I have a 100mm F2.8 Macro USM lens and the manual states that the Macro ring Lite ML-3 can be used on the the pre mentioned lens. Sorry about the wrong information.
