Got me a Soligor 105mm f2.8 serial number 1671797 with a Canon FL/FD breech mount. Now, this mount comes off by undoing 3 screws around the circumference of the mount (just like a T2 mount) but it is not threaded like a T2. It just slips on and off and the 3 screw tighten into a groove running around the lens.
Any ideas?

That's a T-mount. Wink

Is that a plain bog standard T mount, or would it have a number following it?

No numbers, just plain "T".

Similar to a T2. Sounds like the ring has just been massively over-tightened on the lens.

Thanks for your reply guys. No the lens itself has an engineered groove running around where the mount would fit and has not been over tightened or bodged either.
