Canon FD anyone?
      12/06/2008 23:20

Not sure if this is the best place to post, but I have just bought a Tamron 24mm f2,5 lens from Ebay, to be used on my Pentax film cameras - I have suitable mounts.

The lens came with a Canon FD adaptall mount in lovely condition. My first thought was, "sell the mount", but that was rapidly replaced by "buy an FD compatible camera"!

Is there any advice out there on these ancient pieces of equipment? Which are to be avoided and which are drooled over perhaps? I would like sturdy construction and reliability, and can live without auto focus.
