Old Quantaray lens is not expected to work on new Canon cameras, unless you send it back, with receipts, to Sigma for ' re-chipping ' , and that also depends whether Sigma is willing to do it, in view of a long Q for re-chipping of old Sigma lens.

There are two useful threads on re-chipping that you can read and they are found in
Canon EOS Forum and Sigma lens problem

Your non-Canon lenses are not completely useless, they are still OK as long as you can get it re-chipped.

Thanks for the answer. I was always able to use all the Quantaray lens with my non digital canon, but not with the digital one. They fit beautifullyon both. If i have the camera sent for re chipping,will it still fit onto my old canon (non-digital) base?

Fitting is not a problem because the mount is not changed, only the chip inside the lens is changed. So the re-chipped lens will still fit onto your old camera body.
