In Reply to: info on Soligor 130-650mm lens needed posted by Frank Winter on October 17, 1999 at 08:55:29:
: Hello everyone, I recently came across a beautiful Soligor
130 to 650mm zoom lens at a church sale. In a pristene aluminium
case it appears unused and was marked as a "telescope,
missing the eyepiece"!!
: It is actually a removable P/K mount. A search of the web came
up with no mention or info on the performance of this lens. Has
anyone out there ever used this lens? Does anyone have a lead to
it's optical performance.
: Yes, as I left I deposited an extra $20.00 in the donation basket on the check-out counter.
In response to Frank:
Soligor lenses were most of the time linked to the Miranda
cameras, gone in the late 70's.
Quality varied from lens to lens, some were surprisingly superb
(sharpness, little or no distorsion on the edges, and so on).
Hard to find data on them now.
