Thank you Mark for the information about the lens....I think my old Spotmatic F lens are screw mount so I guess I'll be needing an adapter...I'm sure I can find out about that in the forums. I'm really enjoying digital, instant gratification, used to have to wait forever for film to be processed back in the day. Thank you again for your kind "welcome".
