A few months ago, I acquired an old SLR. It's a Chinon CP-9AF, and the person I got it from said the body is broken. It came with 2 lenses and a bunch of other things like lens filters.
What I am wondering is if these lenses are compatible with any of today's DSLR's.
I'm not too keen on lenses and SLR cameras so I hope you guys can share your knowledge and insight with me.
Let me know if you need to any more pictures, specifications, etc.

wow i never seen a chinon before,so i wouldn't know.
ide say probably not
always best to goto photography forums and ask
Well, i don't believe they will.
Most camera brands have different types of mounts.
If you can get the body fixed or to work, i suggest you try film photography.
It is a lot of fun. I did the whole film photography thing, even went as far to roll my own film for my camera, used a dark room, ect.
no
I made my own lens out of a door hole thingy thing thing.
take a photo of the mount.

Yo perf get a pic of the mount on the cam so I can help you out
I added 3 more pictures.
The lens is a Pentax K mount if it's a bayonet mount or an M42 screw mount. Even if you can find an adaptor to fit these to a Canon EOS mount the expense is probably not worthwhile as none of the cameras automatic functions will work with the adaptors.

Ah yes I was just going to say that I found this
[quote=http://www.butkus.org/chinon/parts.htm]Lens mount: C-AF mount (mount compatible with K, KA, KAF, RK mount lenses with certain restrictions on program
AE mode usage). [/quote]
and also found adapters that made them compatible.
Thanks for helping.
