Digital camera & digital photography resources
for professional & amateur photographers

i am a newbie to photography. I got a EOS300D with the included 18-55 mm lens. i had a Minolta XTSI (Normal SLR not a digital SLR) camera with sigma 28-200 mm lens ( i do not know the type of lens that came with that as it is not with me right now). (for somebody wondering why a newbie has two SLRs - i thought i had a passion for photography but never had the time to explore).

Can i use it for this camera? (I beleive i cannot, as Sigma makes lenses for each manufacturer separately and they have different mounts). I would appreciate if somebody can let me know if there is a way to use this lens with EOS300D.

TIA for any suggestions.
