Will digital slr lenses work on film cameras if you use Manual focus?


Help! I signed up for a Photography class and my Professor wants us to only use film cameras. I bought a Nikon N8008 body on ebay because I thought I could still use all of my nikor lenses for my digital slr and just use manual focus. However my viewfinder will not focus. I don t know if it s because my lenses are only compatible with a digital camera or if there s something wrong with the film camera. To get an idea how blurry it is, I can t get it to focus enough to read numbers on a wall clock 10 feet away. Do I need a spacer possibly?

Buying my first super 8 camera?


Buying my first super 8 camera… Option #1 is a Elmo 600SD in excellent working order with a 8.5-50mm lens. It comes with a case and a crap load of accessories (2 mics, light, all manuals, ear piece, cables, etc.) for $35.00 plus $22.45 shipping. #2 is a Nikon Super zoom 8 with the 7.5-60mm lens with case and instructions for $45.00 free shipping and the statement "minimal testing done, as is". Option #3 is a Canon 814 w/ a 7.5-60mm lens camera only, working $59.99 + $20.99 shipping. Option #4 is a Canon 514XL with film and accessories and case, again the 7.5-70mm lens working, good condition in auction starting at $9.99 (but could go way up the last day) and $29.99 shipping. Option #5 is another Nikon like the first on I mentioned, says working auction for $25.00 (again, could or will go way up by end) and $20.00 shipping. I like the idea of having the versitility of the 60 or 70mm lens, but the Elmo looks like the best deal here. What do you think?
