What do you mean, lens support? - a 75-200 is not usually long enough to warrant this, if you mean a support bracket to mount the lens to a tripod, instead of a camera mounting point?

btw - sigma made all or most of the lenses for quantaray, so you might try looking this one up that way as well.

I have been researching this problem and found there's nothing you can do. Appararently, the quantaray, being an older lens, wasn't made to work with this latest era of cameras. Though it might work perfectly with your older camera, its technology is outdated as it relates to digital cameras and can't mesh with the latest and greatest. By the way, most of my questions were answered on the Digital Camera Resource page (www.dcresource.com)

I work for Ritz and just fixed this issue for a customer. The lens may not be fully seated into the mount and the contacts are not in alignment so there is no communication between the camera and the lens. Try turning the lens a bit more... gently... towards the locking position, you will here a click from the release button coming up all the way and the lens should start to work just fine.

I bet they are not AF lenses. There are adapters that add the AF contacts to "fool" the camera but increase the zoom. You can get used lenses from many "on line" camera stores with warranties for a few months.

SOURCE: I´ve been trying to use my Quantaray 70-300

Canon leads the current world market in lenses with their L-series lenses using fluorite rather than other manufactures use of glass. however, they do not make money when we buy 'other' brands of lenses and have kept a certain amount of their body to lens, coding as propriatary. the problem you stated is a common complaint with all second manufactured lenses and the only real solution is to put a canon lens on a canon body.

How can I find out the settings available on a Quantaray 70-300 mm zoom lens?

Quantaray has made several different 70-300mm lenses so I'm not sure exactly which one you have. However, if the lens doesn't have a AF/M switch it's no big deal. Assuming it's an autofocus lens, it's always on. If you want to switch to manual focus, flip the switch on the camera body.

If it's an older manual-focus Quantaray lens then the question is moot.

I recently bought myself a very good CanonESO 50D. Canon DS 126211 serial number 0620301416 Since I only bought the camera, I needed to get Canon compatible lenses and was looking for a 70-300mm. I bo

Almost all early Quantaray lenses (and Sigma lenses, Sigma made Quantaray) in the Canon EOS mount will show error messages on Canon digital cameras (but still work fine on older EOS film cameras). usually err99 but err01 also. There is no DIY fix and Sigma ran out of update parts years ago. Current production lenses and Canon made lenses will not have this problem. This lens would only work for someone shooting EOS film cameras with no intention of "upgrading" their system to digital Canon cameras in the future.

It's not a universal mount, you do need to get a Canon mount.
I just did a quick search for "quantaray 70-300mm canon" and found several for sale.

Looking for lens hood

Local camera "shows" might be a good place for you to look - the glass is sold by RITZ so you could check with them - also I am a firm believer in buying the manufacturers own glass - it costs more but you will always be able to get accessories for the glass and in most cases the glass is much better quality. I recognize for some this is no issue but if you ever need to resell you equipment - something I do ever 18 months - you will find the aftermarket glass - tamaron, tokina - vivitar - and quantaray all suffer major hits because they are less expensive alternatives to factory glass...

I have Quantaray 28-90 mm aspherical lens and want to know what digital bodies it would fit on.

With right adapters it should fit in any camera. At least Canon, Nikon, Minolta, Pentax. The adapters are 10-20$ each and easy to fit in the lense.
