Soligor 200mm f2.8 Lens Info
Soligor 200mm f3.5
The Soligor 200mm f3.5 is a manual-focus telephoto lens from the early 1970s, known for offering a good balance of performance and affordability. Soligor was a third party lens manufacture offering affordable solution much like Tamron and Sigma do today. Information about this lens is hard to find and I don’t trust Chat GPT as it improvises with incorrect information when it doesn’t know the correct answer. While not as sharp wide open as modern telephotos, the Soligor 200mm f3.5 delivers solid image quality when stopped down. I’ll post more as I spend more time getting to know this lens.
