You can put any SMCP-A (manual focus only), F, FA, D-FA lens on it. I don't think you can use any lens that does not have an aperture ring, unless the MZ-30 can set the aperture on the body. These lenses include the FA-J and DA ranges.
MZ series bodies having a model number ending in '0' have what is commonly termed a 'crippled mount'. That is, older SMCP-K and M lenses will not work correctly except at full aperture.

Umm, no, that would not be correct. The OP stated "i know nothing about sli cameras". That's a clue to me that a bit more information might be needed.

Thanks 'Mannesty'/Peter.
I read 'Pentaxophile's' post and realised I'd forgotten the 'A' series, of which I have none.
Tried to delete my post before anyone noticed, but you were too quick.
Regards
