Go to solution Solved by ShadowCaptain,

 

I have not been able to find really any information at all about this brand. The mount is what I am trying to figure out.

 

Might not be able to use it on a DSLR, probably only a mirrorless camera

 

 

EDIT: It might be a T2  or M42 n which case you can get a to nikon adapter

I am pretty new to photography. I picked up this 35mm prime lens for $20, but it does not fit with my D3100. Unfortunately there is not much info available for this lens, so I have no idea what kind of adapter I need. Any advise? gallery_89692_2367_373006.jpg

I think you might be right, I will check those adapters out.

It's definitely not M42 or T-Mount . Those are screw mounts. You have a bayonet mount lens, more specifically a Minolta SR Mount. This will work: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003EDYIM6 

 

EDIT: It will be manual focus and aperture only. Image quality prob. won't be that good from such an old lens.

Thanks for that, that adapter cost more than the whole lens unfortunately. I guess that lens is just gonna be a decoration.
