My mother has a similar one as well with various lenses.
It was extremely pricey back then and is still high quality, as she worked for a photo store she knew what to buy :)

I think its possible basically, but there are a number of things to consider.
We had a topic on this here before, will try to find it ( unless one of the experts is faster :P )


ok!
let me know when you found it haha :P

wow that's a really nice photo, if i had a film slr lying about i'd just buy some film rather than just use the lense and get a new camera ;)

thanks!

yea that's the cheaper way, but I hate the fact I can't see my pics right away (not gonna develop them myself I think)
and I like to take a lot of pictures when I go somewhere (usually 250+) and that isn't really doable with film I think?

and I photoshop every pic I have, having to scan them in ?

ok so today I went to en electronic shop where they sell cameras.

The seller explained some basics to me about DSLRs

I got an canon lens from my parents old (analog) camera (3000d or something)

he said that if the lense is more then 8 years old, the mm of the focal length (best way to translate it) is worse than on newer lenser, 1.4 times worse he said. Is that true?

I said I wanted to start on something not to expensive like the 1000d and he said I should consider the 450(d?) which is newer and got things like a better chip (which can handle higher ISOs) and a faster processor, it also feateres live view which the 1000d doesn't (are you guys using that anyway? for something like macro?). The 450(d?) is like ~140 bucks more.

I'm really not that wealthy atm, and if I can make reasonable pics for a while with the 1000d I prefer something like that. and is buying a camera like smart to buy secondhanded? I can get a secondhand 1000d body for around ~200 euro (~300 bucks)

Worse wouldn't be the correct word, closer to reality is that your focal length is multiplied with 1.4
