If you are transferring it onto a camera with the same mount then yes. But be aware AUTO FOCUS MAY NOT WORK CORRECTLY. The aperture of the lens may not be as good either. But overall you should be OK.

Good Luck

Will lenses from 35MM camera work on newer DSLR cameras?

It depends on the brand of camera and the type of lens. Most Nikon film SLR lenses will work (in manual mode) on their digital SLR cameras. Many Canon lenses will work on new Canon SLR cameras, but you have to check compatability between the camera model and the type of lens. Sony purhcased the Minolta digital camera division, so all Sony Alpha DSLRs will use Minolta lenses.

What is slr n dslr?

SLR & DSLR are acronyms for: Single Lens Reflex and Digital Single Lens Reflex SLR gave photographers the possibility of seeing exactly what the camera is going to take by bouncing the image off a mirror into the viewfinder. Before the viewfinder was created it was separate from the lens which gave the photographer an approximate of what the camera is capturing however it wasn't very useful. Over time photographers were trying to figure out how to look through the lens to see exactly what the camera is capturing and placed a mirror in between the lens and film/sensor that reflects the image up into a prism and into your viewfinder- quite genius if you ask me. This system is called single lens reflex. Hope that helps!
