Photography - SLR lens query

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/photography-slr-lens-query.74983/

A rather dumb query and the answer is probably 'no' but still I am
taking my chances.

Is it possible to use a manual lens (SLR) as an accessory for a routine
digital camera?

I have Konica-Minolta Dimage Z2. It's basic fotos are awesome. But I
was stunned after handling the manual lens of Nikon D40 yesterday!

SLR camera is definitely on my must-buy list when I become rich. But in
the meanwhile, can I use any accessory lens for my Dimage Z2?

Thank You.

That won't be possible. If that were possible, people would never have bought SLRs.

right.although there is one camera nikon coolpix someting in which u can chhange lenses.but they are only for that cam

^^ In that case, the one that I have, Kodak P-850 also has a similar feature. You can add a lens over it's existing one. So the zoom goes from 12X to 15X. But such things are not true SLR.

And I am not sure if that 12-15 is the only lens available.... needs some more digging.
