I am looking to buy a dslr camera body and use tamron lenses
with them. Has anyone done this here? I would especially like
to know, which of the following lenses

http://www.tamron.com/lenses/prod/autofocus.asp

fit the Nikon D70 body or the Canon EOS 20D Body.

Thanks,
--j

Probably the ones that say "Canon" and/or "Nikon" in the "Mount:" category
on the product description pages at the link you provided.

Any chance I could use this

http://www.tamron.com/lenses/prod/2880mm.asp

with canon eos 20d/350D Rebel XT / Nikon D70s.
It seems that it is listed as Nikon-D Mount , hence
should work with at least Nikon D70s?

Thanks,

instead of that lens, just get the D70s kit, which comes with a very good
lens (18-70 ED)?

Arent they more costly than the cheap tamron's ($60-$70 range)?

well, price after rebate for the D70 w/ 18-70 is 950 right now at B&H. the
d70 body only package is 780.

For the extra $100 (170 difference - the 70 you will pay for the tamron) you
get a $350 ~ $400 nikon lens of good quality. very much worth it.

I was hoping to build something for around $500 from a body.
I do have an old tampon lens. But it seems that most of the
pricing on the web, that is cheap is fake....

I would like to buy a performance sports car but use cheapo remould
tyres....

Get the 18-70mm kit lens with the D70. Use it for 6 months then see if you
need any more lenses.

All IMHO of course ;-)

I'd like to see that lens's mount. Sounds like something Russ
Meyer might have used.
