Changing from 35mm film camera to digital


I have a Pentax SF1 camera that we've had since the late 1980s. It has been great. We have a couple of other lenses (wide angle, telephoto)...we've had a lot of fun with it. As I take a lot of pictures of the kids and their sports as well as some outdoor, scenery type shots I like the different lenses. Now we are planning to buy a digital camera. We would like to get one that our other lenses would fit on. What types of cameras might those be?

There are also adaptors to use your Pentax K-mount lenses on Canon's film and digital EOS SLRs, but you'd have to use stop-down metering.

  P.S. using the adaptor to mount Pentax lenses on EOS cameras you'd not have autofocus, either.
