Hello everybody Very Happy New member, longtime lurker here

I need help identifying the mount on this Sankor 200mm 4,5 I recently acquired.

btw, are these lenses any good? I found a thread on this forum but didnt find any sample pictures with this specific lens.
I got it for 35€ which seemed fair.

thank you

Nikon?

That's a tricky one to be confident over, as it doesn't have any linkages, or electrical contacts or other such unique features.
I can't even see an indexing mark on your photo. If it's Nikon it would be a very early version, as aperture linkages have been present on all F mount lenses I've seen.
Quick measurements of the tab lengths & mount diameter etc might help narrow it down - at least for common mounts.

Looks like a plain Nikon F to me. It is a T mount lens so the T adapter can be screwed off to be replaced with T to other mount adapters.

Most likely it is a preset lens. That's why it is just a plain Nikon F. Enjoy the Sankor.

It's Nikon F. See that slot between the two bayonet lugs? That's where the indexing pin fits, and it's the giveaway that it's Nikon.
