Never underestimate a Sankor! 
Sankors are good value lenses with nice looks and excellent mechanics.
My all time favorite is the 105mm f/2.5, fantastic IQ and Bokeh, a must have lens IMHO.
Do you have a picture of this lens?

Hello Ian,
I found a neat little Sankor labeled preset T2 lens 28mm/3.5, but a former owner had apparently lubticated the focusing helical. And remounted the lens wrong; aperture indicator is 90° off. I was curious if it was worth the energy and patience (!) to get it OK again and found your thread. But without any of the pictures. A pity. Disappeared in the latest crash? |

I've replaced the pics.
I'd say this is a lens worth fixing, it's plenty sharp enough, images have dimensionality, overall, a very good lens imho.

Thanks, I see that I'll have to do my best in fixing (however it can be used as it is).
Nice little thing. |

Cheers, glad to help.
It's a fairly common lens, seen in very many brands, worth grabbing if you see one as it's always very cheap.
