Can I Match Up Any Lens For My Nikon Cameras?

When you originally bought your digital camera, it probably came with interchangeable lenses. One of the lenses was probably already on the body of the camera and you might have luckily received a second lens included with the price. If you started doing your photography, and you've taken a few courses, and you've done some research, you might begin to notice that there is an array of lenses available to you. These lenses are superb for different kinds of photography such as wide lens, panoramic, macro, etc.

But, can you really use Nikon cameras lens with a Canon slr cameras or visa versa? Sadly, I would love to say yes, but this just isn't the case! If you don't want to run into any compatibility problems, it's a really good idea to match up your lens manufacturer with your camera manufacturer. Unless you get an adapter but that’s a different story altogether. So if you have something like Canon SLR cameras and you find a really cheap Olympus Macro lens you really have been wanting to buy - don't do it!

Pay the few bucks more and get the right lens for the right camera. There are a few brands out there that supposedly work with various brands of cameras, but I'm still not sure I would trust it when I shop digital cameras and lenses!
