200mm · f/2.8
The Soligor 200mm f/2.8 is a manual-focus telephoto lens known for good sharpness in the center at wider apertures, but softness towards the edges and some chromatic aberration. Build quality is typical of third-party lenses of its era, with a solid metal barrel but a somewhat stiff focus ring. It suits photographers who need a fast, affordable telephoto for film or digital, provided they can tolerate edge softness and manual operation.
