I got a mixed bag of old lenses other day from a friend of a friends relative, out of back of their garage..( conversation probalby went .. yeah I know an oddball guy who still uses old film cameras, he might take them 'Laughing')
anyways it was mainly junk (as expected) but this one intrigues me as I have not seen the mount before.. it's on an Auto Sankor 135mm F2.8 lens ... which focuses from 6 foot (1.8M) , glass is fine usual dust.
Only question is what is the mount?

Pin sticks way out for auto diaphragm..


It has an external stop down lever and what seem to be a smaller unlock lever on opposite side



stop down lever??


general view on lens


so any clues much appreciated Laughing

This is a Sun made lens, I have the 3.9/200mm big brother of it sat in front of me.

These Suns used the same YS interchangeable mount system as Sigma. Mine has a Miranda bayonet mount on it which is of different design to your lens, but I can confirm, yours is also in Miranda bayonet fitting.

These old Suns are not great lenses, in fact, I think the three I've tried were pretty bad, unacceptable quality unless stopped down 2-3 stops.

Nope. Classic Sankor lens.
