I just got a SIGMA 17-70 1:2:8-4 DC (C) lense. Mount looks very much like Canon EF (S) but it's smaller. Added a foto from a 70-200 EF to compare. Anybody knows what this mount is for? Many thanks in advance

could it be a sigma SA mount?– PatrickFeb 3, 2020 at 21:42

EF-M perhaps? Its 47mm throat diameter looks similar to your measurement– Nate S.Feb 3, 2020 at 21:42

that's what I thought first but SIgma says on there webpage it would be only available for: Canon EF-Mount, Nikon F-Mount, SIGMA SA-Mount, Pentax K-Mount, Sony A-Mount– PatrickFeb 3, 2020 at 21:53

SA seems likely then. Take a look at the linked picture from the comment on this answer; does that look like what you've got?: photo.stackexchange.com/questions/65303/…– Nate S.Feb 3, 2020 at 22:15

Thanks @Nate S. for his answer.
This looks like the same thing, so yes, SA: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/sigma-17-70mm-2-4-macro-dc-sigma-sa-1791976047
Solution is Sigma SA Mount

Sigma SA reportedly uses the same communication protocol as Canon EF, which explains why it looks like an EF mount from an alternate universe.– xiotaFeb 4, 2020 at 3:48

IIRC you have have the mount changed by Sigma service. Nice lens, that's my "standard" one. Just a bit soft at 17mm.– xenoidFeb 4, 2020 at 10:25
