Default Non-digital Lenses

I would like to have a macro lens to play with but can't afford one that is intended for a digital camera (all the electonics in place) so I'm thinking of buying an older second hand Canon lens, they aren't too hard to find in pawn shops etc. I understand that they can be used with modern digital cameras, it simply that everything has to be done manually rather than on auto. Has anyone on here done something like this? Is it practical to do?
