Quantarary Lenses

[cherrygirl]

OK, so since I now shoot Canon, I have these two Quantaray Lenses that I can't use. I have no idea how old they are but I have had them at least 10 years but they are in good shape....no scratches, dents. They fit Nikon I know but don't know if they will fit others.

One is 80-200 mm (number on this one 2036092 if that mean anything!)
One is 28-80mm (number on this one 3337413)
Both Auto Focus

Is anyone interested in them? Honestly not sure how much they are worth...pricing on the internet are all over the place.....so if someone wants to make an offer, I'm open for anything or I'm headed to the pawn shop!!!

[cherrygirl]

wow....guess no one cares about these lenses! Off to the pawn shop!

Still for sale?

Uh... why not get one of these and use them on your Canon? You won't have autofocus or aperture control from the camera, but since both those lens have focus and aperture rings on them, they could still be used.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'd rather get fully functioning Canon lenses and let someone benefit from these lenses. I was hoping to find someone that might be tight on money and need them and get good use out of them.

Honestly I didn't know that there were adapters like this!!

Oh and yes...they are still for sale...I admit...I have trouble pawning anything!!

Interested in buying. What price would you put on each?

Found a home for the lenses! Thanks for the interest!

Are there adapter mounts that give AF confirmation? They seem hard to come by.

I just happen to see these...

I get mine off eBay from happypageHK these days. I've used big_is's chipped rings, too, with success, but I get a better fit with the happypage rings. Both of them offer programmable chips where you can set the max. aperture and focal length of the lens (also AF microadjust settings).
