Description

Gina taken by a Soligor F2,8 28mm manual focus lens, with lens number 17550330, the first digit (1) gives away that it was commisioned to Tokina to build it.

Mine is from the beginning of the 70ties and is a bit soft at full open aperature , but at F5,6 it can compete with brands as Canon Nikon usw.

This picture of Gina is taken at F4 i picked it up on a Flea Market for 4 Euro in mint condition ! 

Since it is not multicoated i prefer to use it for Black & White photography only.

Soligor was originally the trade mark for the American Allied Impex Corporation, used from 1956 for lenses and later cameras imported from Japan. It imported cameras from Japan and also took control of companies in Japan. Among the first products wasMiranda T camera and Soligor lenses.

Soligor GmbH is a German manufacturer of photographic equipment, opticsvideo surveillance equipment, and personal electronics. Founded in Stuttgart in 1968 as A.I.C. Phototechnik GmbH by Allied Impex Corporation (USA), the company changed its official name in 1993 to match the brand name used on its optical products.

Most commonly encountered products were manufactured in Japan, (to quite a reasonable standard-many by Tokina,) under the Soligor brand, as well as Miranda, (which was acquired by Allied Impex in the 1960s.) The company also seems to have had an association with Vivitar, (the T4 interchangeable mount, for instance).

The company is currently located in Leinfelden-Echterdingen, just outside Stuttgart, in Baden-Württemberg. (Coutesey of Wikipedia >> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soligor )
