Generally, no can do. The digital lenses are specifically designed to communicate with the digital body, so even if you do manage to get them to work, not all functions will operate. I gather there are some adaptor rings you can buy that will allow you to connect them, but things like autofocus, etc probably won't work. Google's your best bet...

Hi Brian,
As have say Matt that generally don't work. however there are some adapter that can help your lens to communicate with the body of the 400 d, but you lost some functions like aoutofocus and have to work with the exposimeter in stop down.

Hi Brian, you have to contact Sigma imaging and explain your query, i do believe that some sigma lenses for canon cameras can be re-chipped to suit later cameras (dependent on lens modal)

Here is the Link Sigma Imaging
