Do AF film lenses work on digital SLRs?

Want to take existing SLR lenses from my Pentax film camera and place onto new digital SLR (when I get one). Same brand. What do you know?

You are in luck, Pentax has the best backwards compatibility of all digital camera manufacturers. This means that most (not all, but almost) lenses will work in the same way on Pentax digital cameras.

By the way, I highly recommend the Pentax *ist DS2, it is a great camera with the largest and clearest viewfinder of all entry-level DSLR cameras.

Since your lenses are AF, they will most likely work. To be sure you can look at the information in the digital camera manual, it lists the lens mounts supported. Just compare that to your lenses.

i know Canon's old film SLRs work, but Pentax I don't know.

for now,no standard.check on a case by case basis.
