I have an older lens, marked Carl Zeiss Jena, Flektogon 4/25. Is
this lens compatible with, or adaptable to, a modern DSLR?

I don't know anything about the particular lens, but I'd given even
money on it being adaptable, at least to most Canons or Nikons. I use
a number of classic lenses on my Canons, including Zeiss C/Y, Leica,
even a Schneider enlarging lens on a cobbled up bellows system.

You could pop over to Fred Miranda's website and ask in the
"Alternative Digital Systems and Lenses" forum.

Thanks for the "Fred Miranda" name.. lot's of good google links there
for digital info..

You bet. The forums are also one of the best places to meet very
experienced camera freaks, pro and otherwise, and it's generally a lot
friendlier than most other similar sites.
