Canon T70 lens adapter

[Hatburger]

I have a few old lenses for a Canon T70 35mm SLR. I know there are adapters to convert Canon DSLR lenses to a6000 but I was wondering if it would adapt the old lenses. Any help would be appreciated.

There are adapters for common SLR lenses 

including yours. Strictly manual operation but 

the adapter provides a proper flange distance.   

    

You can also consider a SpeedBooster [aka 

"focal reducer"] which does cost extra, but is 

really worth it. Metabones is the premium line 

but there are economy versions as well. 

   

Novoflex is the most expensive, but inferior to 

Metabones. I borrowed a $25 adapter and it 

worked well enuf, but when it came to owning 

one for long term use, I went the extra $65 for 

the Metabones. Oddly enuf, the verrrry pricey

Novoflex incorporates the design flaw that was 

reason for not buying the economy versions. 

    

Unless your old lenses are very special it's not 

really a good idea. Wrong format, extra weight 

and bulk, slower operation etc. But for a macro 

or 8mm fisheye [forget the 16], or certain other 

optics, there's good reason and good results.  

   

Hopefully your old lenses are FD and not FDn 

versions. FDn versions can be very fussy as to  

which adapters will work. FD is no problem.
