Hi Rino,
"Helicor" is a new one to me. I bet its another merchants brand. There were 100's of these.
If the lens looks like these it is certainly from the 1960's.

Woah woah woah!! This is one gorgeous lens 
It arrived today looking a bit worse for wear, but I stripped it down (very, very easy) and cleaned it up and I just LOVE the results! The bokeh looks lovely and creamy  Unfortunately it's too dark to venture outside, so the real test will be this weekend.
Only problem is the fungus at the front had taken hold and has left a light imprint over half the glass. Still seems to work OK though!!!
f3.5
Crop
f4
Crop
f5.6

f8

f3.5 again

With a bit of sharpening and some better focusing (  ) I reckon I could be onto a winner with this one!

The two last tell me that PP perhaps not neccesary.
Test match at full daylight. The lens seems to request that

Hi Shrek
This must be the greatest co-incidence, saw one at the local flea market in almost mint condition for 5US dollar today
so i thought what the heck, even if it is crappy its still worth it
just cleaned it , and will test tommorow if the weather is good
 |
Wow, good stuff!  Yours looks a bit cleaner and less pixelated than mine |
I have a Seriese 105mm/f2.5 is almost equal to this lens...

Hi Shrek.....You won't be dissapointed i was absolutely surprised with this lens this afternoon
tried to push it towords 1:1 with total of 110mm tube and check the results
i think it is above average in my limited experience! KEEPER FOR ME!
The seed on the leaf is just smaller than 2.5mm diam (for scale)
and from another image 100% crop as well

Thanks Attila and Lightshow!
C&C is OK, so go ahead and blast away those HDR colors though , I am actually quite curious which ones of them seems acceptable and which ones are completely out of whack. |
Matter of taste only , some people hate it , some people love it . I am on lover side, HDR is an art tool I can't paint , but I can paint with HDR I like colorful unrealistic HDR, other people not they like to see as normal photograph. Somebody use photography is technical tool , makes captures perfect as possible. Somebody use it as art tool and impression is better than pixel peeping. I am on this side also, who care pixels, sharpness etc if picture is good to hang on my wall and I love it.
On #9 , #10 I miss brightness.

I think the maker of these is right there in the name - Sankor
Sankor was a brand used by a manufacturer of movie/cine lenses. They made cine camera lenses, projection lenses, anamorphic adapters (like for "Cinemascope"), etc., under their own brand. And apparently 35mm camera lenses mostly under merchants brands.
Another brand these come in seems to be "Sonnagar" -
http://cgi.ebay.com/Sonnagar-135mm-f-3-5-Exakta-Mount-Lens_W0QQitemZ320231507833QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCamera_Lenses?hash=item320231507833&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1234%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50
It looks like there may be a 35/2.8 as well as the 135/2.8 and 135/3.5 we know about.
The automatic/YS mount lenses in the "Accura Diamatic" brand that Voytek and I have may be later products from this maker.

Hi Rino
You are a brave one to do macro wih film  it will take me thousands of shots to get a usable one..... no checking histogram...no quick adjustment here and there after checking the shot...no fine tune of focus and exposure....Too much skill needed 
Impossible on film for me!!

Hi Luis that makes a lot of sense, because on mine is written only SANKOR and not mayfair as well
on shrek's lens both names appear and they cant both be brands
so sankor on it's own must then be the maker , but i have never heard of them
and even the lens cases in your links are identical to the one that came with my lens

Thanks Rusty.
Perhaps for all you say, it's a bad pic.
I'm not macro shooter, it's easy to know. I wanted to try, no more than this.

With that old lens.
Mayfair Sankor 135/3,5, is the same than the Sankor 135/3,5?
Both are identical. The sankor is knurled in chrome but gray not black.

Hi everyone,
My first post in MF forum, just to tell that I'v got this lens but in f/3.2 and 12 aperture blades.
I don't like it very much, but it's a funny piece of metal.

I suppose that if one wants to one-up ones competitors with an f/2.5 135mm instead of an f/2.8, then it makes just as much sense to have an f/3.2 where the other fellows would have an f/3.5.
A very nice collectible anyway.

Towards the bottom of this page is a tall advert that features the f/3.5 lens (branded as a Mayfair Crystar.) It's a bit small but just readable. There is some more info on that site that is quite interesting.
