Can anyone help here and tell me if this Sigma lens is a Pentax lens mount. It is for sale on Ebay. Here is the link with photos. Sigma Zoom 28 80mm 1 3 5 5 6 Macro Lens | eBay

I'm betting it's not for a Pentax because a) the bayonet lugs look too long and b). the electrical contacts are in the wrong spot and are the wrong type.

BTW: Welcome to the forum!

Looks like Nikon to me, you can see it has 2 sets of numbers around the aperture ring.

It is definitely Nikon mount, but the 2 sets of aperture numbers are also present on some K-mount lenses. The lower set provides compatibility for those cameras (ME Super, KX, LX, etc.) having an optical window for to view the aperture within the viewfinder.
