Film-based and digital SLR cameras use 35mm lenses.
Film-based and digital SLR cameras use 35mm lenses. The lenses allow you to manually focus on the subject matter and even zoom into the content, if you have a zoom lens. Cameras that use 35mm lenses also allow you to switch lenses if you need a specific one for the subject matter, for instance, if the content is far away or extremely close up.
Instructions
1. Press and hold the locking button to the side of the lens. Turn the lens, and it will twist off of the camera. Hold it tight to make sure you do not drop or damage it.
2. Attach the camera lens to the camera in the same fashion. Connect the lens to the opening in the camera and turn. When it clicks, you know it has locked into place.
3. Turn the camera to "Manual" focus. (A small switch on the side of the camera allows you to do so.) Look through the viewfinder, and find the object you want to take a picture of. Twist the focus ring on the lens until the image in the viewfinder is clear.
4. Twist the zoom ring on the lens. Doing so increases or decreases the size of the content in the viewfinder. Lenses that do not have a zoom feature are known as prime lenses. Often, the best way to focus on an object is to zoom all the way in, focus the lens, then zoom back out. This ensures the content is in focus no matter how far away it is.
