Hello,

can you say, does this Sankor 135/3.5 lens have a T2- mount or fixed Exakta mount?

T2-Exakta.

Thanks a lot, Ian!

Its Exakta, but probably not T2

I have seen quite a number of this type and all were fixed mount.

These lenses came in many mounts but the interchangeable portions are unique to the lens type.
Even the "big brother" 135/2.8 of this type is not interchangeable with the 135/3.5

Luis will be correct, he is a veritable mine of info on these matters Smile

It does resemble a t mount, but if the diameter and threads are different, no dice. Sad

I may very well be wrong and it is a T2, there are all sorts of variations with these things.
I'm just saying that one can't be certain.

And thanks for confirming the maker as Sankor, as I have been wondering who made these. These late 50's-early 60's lenses are quite common, under many brands and style variants. I see plenty sold as Bittco Vemars, but that was a US importer.

I have the same Sankor but branded "Supertel" and it is not a T2 fit. The screw mount has a slightly larger diameter.
