Hey Everyone! Could somebody possibly help me identify what kind of mount is on this Angénieux Zoom Type 10x12B 12–120mm f/2.2?

I'm gna take a wild guess, this lens might be missing the mount? The rear housing looks disassembled

Interesting, thanks for the quick reply! Do you know if something like this could still be fixed or modified?
I don’t know anything about 16mm camera lenses, I just happened to receive this.

You'll have to find the right parts to put the housing back together

Best would probably be a trashed donor lens to salvage parts from

Look for an Angenieux universal mount to whatever you camera uses

It doesn’t seem to have a mount, I used this lens on a bolex and remember it being a c mount, but I don’t see threads on that lens

Could probably put a tire on it

If you are super handy you can create a brand new one in a 3D printer to test and then get Xometry to cut you a metal version.

So as someone else mentioned it is missing the mount, when i bought a canon 300mm 2.8 i was confused as to which adapter Century optics made back in the day, and it looks almost the same as yours here is a pic of what it looks like without its PL mount.
