Help.... what SLR camera mount is this lens for ?

John Salim · Apr 22, 2014

Hello all,
I wonder if anybody can tell me what SLR camera mount this lens is for ?
I was given it a while a go and am curious to know what it fits.
I've looked all over the net for images and found nothing that resembles it ( .... no it's not a PK mount - though a PK lens cap fits ok )

The lens is a 28mm f2.8 Super Paragon PMC made in Japan.
( images shows the lens in upright position )

Many thanks,
John S

Looks much like a Contax/Yashica mount.

I'm venturing to say Contax/Yashica mount.

Edit: not fast enough!

A big thank you to everyone, and appreciate your link to the 'lens mount' images Ricardo.

I've been lurking - and looking around this forum for ages, so thought I better make the leap !

Thanks again all,
John S

I would Ricardo if I had a body to use it on ! ( ....I only have Nikons for 35mm ).
Perhaps I should advertise it here on the forum ?

Cheers,
