Are Prakticar / Pentacon lenses compatible with any other brand’s digital SLR camera?
My Praktica BC1 model came with zoom and wide angle lenses. They have M42 x 1 thread and I would like to use them with a new Digital SLR camera. Do any of the modern Digital SLR cameras (Canon, Minolta, Sony, etc) have the same thread, and so may be compatible with the lenses I have? Thank you.
No DSLR is going to have such a lens mount; indeed, the last new film cameras with this lens mount were made about 35 years ago.
You can get lens adapters. I use an EOS-to-M42 adapter on my Canon DSLRs so I can use my 1960s Pentax screwmount lenses on them. Accessories, too, like closeup extension tubes. All the usual things apply: manual focus, stop-down metering, a focal length factor, if applicable.
A good lens will take good pictures on a DSLR. A DSLR will also show you exactly how bad a bad lens is.
