Description
Soligor was a well-known brand of third-party lenses, often positioned in the mid-range market segment. The Soligor MC Zoom Macro 80-200mm f/4.5 for Canon FD offered a versatile telephoto zoom range with the added benefit of a macro focusing capability (usually achieved by a separate ring or switch, offering moderate magnification). The f/4.5 maximum aperture was common for zooms in this class. Soligor lenses were generally considered decent performers for their price, sourced from various Japanese manufacturers over the years.
