Miranda used to own Soligor. All of Soligor's great C/D lenses should be
available in Miranda mount: the 28/2, 35/2, 100/2, 135/2, 200/2.8, and
assorted zooms.

Soligor made most of Miranda's lenses, but I think Miranda went defunct before the c/d lenses came out. Miranda shut down in 1976 or so.


The extra lens that came with that dx-3 was a Soligor 28/2.8. It looks very good.

My experience with later Soligors was not so good. I bought a 28-80 for my ME Super in 1984...it was so awful that I traded it in after four months for a Tamron. In 1987 I picked up a 300mm mirror, which is of dubious optical quality to say the least.
