Minolta MC to AF adapter
Not aware of such an animal. As I recall, the registration distances are
different so that the older lenses wouldn't focus to infinity. Not many manufacturers provided for backwards compatibility whent they went to AF and digital. I think Nikon and Pentax did. Apparently you can use 40 year old Asahi screwmount lenses on Pentax's ist D digital camera. The old Pentax glass was exceptionally good. wrote in message ups.com...
