Overview

The Soligor C/D 24mm f/2.8 MC Wide-Auto is a wide-angle prime for 35mm SLRs, likely made by Sun Optical or Mitakon. Optically, it delivers acceptable bokeh, colors, and contrast, and handles flare reasonably well into the sun (bornbad). A notable weakness is a loose aperture-contact in 'A' mode causing erratic stop ranges (bornbad). Build quality is typical for its era, with a 52mm filter thread. It suits users seeking an affordable ultra-wide for film or adapted digital use, but the aperture issue may require repair.
