Not sure if this is the proper forum to ask this question, but does anyone have any idea what camera this lens would fit??

Probably Canon, looking at the contacts...

Canon EF. Sigma SA and Minolta/Sony A use the same style of contacts, but the wider contact is distinctly Canon.

The Sigma SA mount is very similar physically to K mount or C/Y mount, but the electrical contacts were taken from Canon.

Thank you.

This is a good resource for identifying lenses on goodwill, though it lacks some of the AF mounts.

Eventually you can tell at a glance what the mount is if there is a good picture.
