I have inherited a LOAD of Hexanon lenses that are 10-30 years old. I asked Konica if they could be used on a current digital Konica/ Minolta. Thet said no.
Will these lenses fit ANY new digital SLR? I hate to sell them off and I love the ability to pick and choose my digital images before they are printed.
I am very much a novice here. I would happily buy any new digital SLR to make these fit.

Fair enough.
It has to be AF Mount lens, non AF lens will not fit/work on the camera, so far except I came across to one lens does not fit (sigma 24mm but after grinding it off, it worked).

These lens fits -

Minolta AF 28-105mm xi lens (Power Zoom)
Minolta AF 28-80mm Lens
Minolta 100-300mm
Sigma 60-200mm
Sigma 24mm (At first the autofocus didn't work because the hole was too small, but after I grinded some off and autofocus does work)

And Tamron 2x TelePhoto Converter.
