Lense Adapter Help

Azurion — Sat, 01 Aug 2015 00:37:37 GMT

I've got both a Canon EOS Rebel XS DSLR and a Canon T50, the T50 has an "Albinar ADG 80-200mm 1:3.9 MC Macro Zoom No. 85107440 55mm lense" and I know there are adapters made to allow lenses from one camera to fit on another, problem is, I can't figure out which adapter I need. Is there anyone out there that can help me? I want to be able to fit the lense I listed above, onto my Canon EOS Rebel XS DSLR. Thank you.

It is possible to purchase an FD-EOS adapter that will let you mount that lens. It will be manual focus and manual aperture. The following link pretty much sums it all up.

"... you've saved me a lot of hair pulling research."

Actually he didn't! This is a bad idea and not worth even trying. You won't like it.
