Hello, I need help with an old camera lens I found a while back. My goal is to be able to use it with my Canon EOS Rebel T3i...if that's even possible. (I'm new to photography)
I've attached some pictures and want to know if you can tell me anything about it. I'm having trouble finding a lot of info on the net. It looks like it's in ok condition except there seems to be some dust inside the lens. Do you think it's possible to open it up and get in there to clean it out? Also do you know if they make adapters for modern usage? I've took a picture with it side by side to a modern lens, no way its gonna fit on my T3i. If not, do you have any idea what type of camera this type of lens would fit? I took it to a photography teacher at my school and he said it's almost 50 yrs old, he referred me to you for more info.
The lens reads:
The lens reads:
FLUORITE No. 20058 CANON JAPAN
CANON C-16 MACRO ZOOM LENS C10x12 12-120mm 1:2.2
Thank you. Any general info you can provide about this lens is greatly appreciated. I wanna know everything about it.
It's the lens on the right with the greene on it.
No, it isn't a Tamron Adaptal lens! 
It is a 16mm film camera lens. I do not know of any adapters to make it fit a DSLR. Doesn't mean there aren't any, though.
They are or were quite common years ago. I doubt you can get $500 for it but you might get $250/ $300 to the right person. It was used on the Bolex 16mm film cameras. Cool find.
