What is the best all-round lens for a Sony a37 camera?

Sony Alpha SLT camera has a built-in image stabilization unlike canon or nikon. So any lenses will do as far as your photo concern. Personally for my a37, I use sony SAL 50mm f1.8 for portrait and 18-250mm tamron for all purpose use. These two lens are cheap enough to tempt you to buy.

Will lenses from 35MM camera work on newer DSLR cameras?

It depends on the brand of camera and the type of lens. Most Nikon film SLR lenses will work (in manual mode) on their digital SLR cameras. Many Canon lenses will work on new Canon SLR cameras, but you have to check compatability between the camera model and the type of lens. Sony purhcased the Minolta digital camera division, so all Sony Alpha DSLRs will use Minolta lenses.


Does any dslr use minolta autofocus lens?

Yes, the SONY ALPHA series of DSLRs have the MINOLTA mount. When Sony took over the Minolta business line, they continued the proprietary MINOLTA lens mount and the Minolta flash shoe, which are unique- that is, ONLY A MINOLTA OR SONY LENS OR FLASH WILL FIT A SONY ALPHA camera. There might be some drawbacks, however. Depending on the focal length, year of production, number of electronic contacts, and type of Minolta AF lens (check the number of gold contacts on the side of the lens that goes into the camera), some of the lenses that have more that five (5) contacts might not work perfectly with the SONY Alpha camera. This is because most of the MINOLTA lenses with 7 or more contacts are POWER ZOOMS- that is, they zoom in and out if you twist the lens grip/ body under power from the camera. SONY has NOT continued this technology, and so the POWER ZOOM MINOLTA LENS will definitely not zoom in and out if mounted on a SONY ALPHA camera body. In its final years of production before the SONY takeover, MINOLTA made so many lenses with so many technological features (such as the POWER ZOOM) built into the lenses themselves. But don't worry...the best thing about having good old MINOLTA AF lenses is that they WILL fit a SONY ALPHA DLSR body. It's up to you to play with the combination of lenses and camera bodies to see what ANTIQUE (Minolta lens) you can still use with a SUPER NEW (Sony Alpha) camera. That's where most of the fun of photography is.


Will lens from N4004 fit D70 camera?

Yes. Nikon cameras have the distinct advantage over other cameras because they are backwards compatible with any Nikon lens. In short, any Nikon camera can mount any Nikon lens. The problem is how much of the lens capabilities are retained when used on a different camera. Depending on the lens' mounting system and the Nikon camera, the lens may or may not be able to autofocus or meter. Also, if you use an FX lens (from a film or D3/D700 camera) on a DX (digital DSLR) camera, the focal lengths will be different than on the film camera. More specifically, it will be 1.5 times the focal length of the film camera. (more zoomed in)
