#USING NIKON D100 WITH SOFORTBILD MANUAL#

My own experience is with the Nikon system and I currently own a number of manual focus Nikkor lenses. One of the advantages of retaining the lens mount is that it allows photographers who own the older lenses to continue using them on the newer cameras, and it opens up the possibility for todayвЂ™s photographers to avail themselves of the literally millions of older lenses that were produced for film cameras and are still available in used condition. This means that the old manual focus lenses will mount on the new DSLRs (with certain restrictions) and can be used for photography (also with certain restrictions, which we will discuss shortly.) Only Nikon and Pentax retained their bayonet mounting hardware while adding the electronic features required for automatic focusing. In addition to adding electronic features to the camera/lens interface, the physical dimensions of the mounting hardware are different, making the new lenses incompatible with the old cameras, and vice-versa. Olympus abandoned its OM mount for the Four-Thirds system. Minolta did the same thing when it switched from its manual focus SR mount in favor of the electronic Maxxum mount. When Canon switched to autofocus for its film cameras, it introduced an entirely new lens mount вЂ“ the electronic EF mount вЂ“ and essentially abandoned its manual focus FD mount. However, the history of the development of autofocus film cameras shows that only two camera companies have preserved their lens mounts from the days of manual focus film cameras to todayвЂ™s digital SLRs. They use the same lens mounts, and often, the same lenses as their film-based predecessors. From super-wide fisheye to ultra-telephoto, interchangeable lenses have given SLR cameras the versatility to tackle almost any photographic challenge, and enabled 35mm film SLRs to dominate the market for вЂњseriousвЂќ photography for decades, until the advent of digital SLRs (DSLRs) beginning around the year 2000.Дigital SLRs are all autofocus cameras, most of which have evolved from the autofocusing 35mm film cameras of their respective manufacturers. One of the greatest features of single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras is the interchangeability of their lenses.
