Seems to be a Fujinon TV lens:

FUJINON and FUJIAN are two completly different worlds and makers!! Teh first is a top class lens maker since many years, the 2nd may be some chinese lens maker. FUJINONS are very sharp and good, but I seriously doubt that the 2nd one comes even close... (but well, Vivek has told you that already I just see on another board...)

It seems to be a very interesting lens. Relatively fast, OK sharpness, and it has extreme feild curvature which can give it subject isolation properties that defy it's f1.7 aperture. Here's a thread of sample shots from another forum:

No wonder with a subject that close and the building behind that far away...

There are a few more samples in that thread if you go through it. There are some street scenes that almost have a tilt shift effect due to focal plane curvature.
