Just noticed this listing: Click here to see on Ebay
See the large screw, i think it is quite unique. Plus the many blades of course. I have similar lens (bit different finish) with SAIGA label and Sankor serial numbering. _________________ ---------------------------------

I have a Komura 135 2.8 that is also very similar. Either the seller has no idea what they are selling or they are trying to pass it off as a fake? _________________ ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Doubt it's a fake. It's listed in the m42 lens database:
http://www.m42lens.com/m42-lens-database/581-yashica-super-yashinon-r-13-5cm-f-2-8-22
Yashica is known to have used other companies to manufacture Yashica branded lenses. They're known to have used Tomioka as a supplier before acquiring that company in 1968. While we don't know they used other suppliers it's certainly a possibility.
Yashica's first SLR cameras used a bayonet mount. The company switched to the m42 mount in 1960 and may have needed to obtain m42 mount lenses from multiple suppliers when transitioning to the new mount. |

Very similar to my Yashinon-R 135 / 3.5, the big screw is just visible.
But it's nothing like my Sankor Series E 105 / 2.5 which is a similar era pre set - T mount lens. ( I haven't got a handy picture of it )

I don't think that Yashinon on ebay is a Sankor, it's similar, but different, the distance scale is marked differently to how Sankors were marked and it lacks the E suffix to the serial. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

This is my Series E 105 / 2.5 that isn't actually branded Sankor, but I'm certain it is. There is a large screw ( infinity stop ) visible, but other than that it has nothing in common with the Yashinon. The serial number doesn't have an E on it either. This is certainly the same as Sankors I've seen on the internet.

Yup, that's a Sankor, identical to my 2.5/105 which does have an E serial, I think mine is branded Seriese. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

I've made a search for 16 blades and two lenses came out being Sankor by serial number and having large screws for infinity stoppage:

So i guess the statement stands. _________________ ---------------------------------

I'm sure I have some other old pre sets with a big screw for the infinity stop, an old Tokina 200 comes to mind. I'll have a look tomorrow. _________________ LENSES & CAMERAS FOR SALE.....

Yashica bought in several third party lenses for its screw mount J-series in the 1960's.
I think we have seen Kyoei and Tokina lenses in Yashinon branding. I believe in some of the "lens lineup" photos also show some Kawanon long teles (400-600-800) and the early, oversize 90-230/4.5 zoom that I think is a very early Sigma product. _________________ I like Pentax DSLR's, Exaktas, M42 bodies of all kinds, strange and cheap Japanese lenses, and am dabbling in medium format/Speed Graphic work. |
