I love old cameras, what can I say.
Hi again, I use a Sony DSLR the lenses you have should work if they have the electrical contacts on the mount, most Minolta/ Sony mount lenses are "screw" drive only some of the very latest lenses are "motorised" one of the biggest problems was stripping gears in the lenses because of the powerful in body motors.
Canon /Sigma lenses are another issue, many older lenses do not work on the digital bodies unless they have been re chipped, and now Sigma have very nearly finished doing them.
But if you want to try the lenses on my Sony body you are more than welcome
Richard.
