Is it possible to refurbish and convert a 35 mm film SLR camera into a digital SLR camera?

May 29th, 2007

I have a 15-year old Canon EOS Rebel X SLR Autofucus (AF) 35mm camera that I have had since 1992. It came with a 50mm AF Lens and Flash when I bought it. The camera has served me well. It is still one of the best CANON EOS Rebels ever made because it is dummy proof. Since then I have also bought 28-90mm AF Macro Zoom Lens, 75-300mm AF Macro Zoom Lens, and a Olympus Stylus 300 digital zoom camera. But I admire the new modern digital zoom SLR cameras. I know a lot of the digital SLR cameras are very pricey.
No - but you can use your autofocus Canon lenses on Canon Digital SLRs. Because of the smaller sensor size in the less expensive Canon Digital SLRs, your lenses will act like they have a 1.5 times larger focal length. (For example, your 28mm to 90mm will act like a 42mm to 135mm lenses on a film camera.).
