Hi All,
I have been given a 600mm Telephoto lens (Sigma) from a elderly family friend who cannot use his camera (poor eyesight) |=)| its in mint condition etc but its a M42 screw fit. Has anyone ever tried fitting a M42 fit lens to a Digital Bridge camera ie Like my Fuji S7000 with filter adaptor tube?
I would love to give it a try but if its pointless then i won't waste my time, i thought i could attach a 55 to 42 step ring. obviously i'd have to use manual focus. I have seen some of his photographs over the years and they are really good close-ups (using the Sigma lens)
Any ideas are welcome
Cheers
Brian
