    Overview

    The Soligor 105mm f/2.8 Tele-Auto is a compact, tank-like lens with solid build (caspert79). It delivers sharp center performance wide open, with good contrast and color rendering. However, it exhibits softness at close distances and color fringing around out-of-focus objects (caspert79). Corner sharpness may require stopping down, typical of 1970s third-party lenses (Alsatian2017). It suits photographers seeking a lightweight, affordable manual telephoto with pleasing bokeh and easy adaptation to modern cameras.
