Soligor chrome -eared, t-mount 135mm F3.5

The number of 135mm lenses marketed by soligor over the years are only too numerous. This listing is for one of the more common ones: the 135mm f3.5 with t-mount and the distinctive silver aperture ring with ears. The 17xxxx serial indicates tokina manufacture. There is a similar f2.8 one which should have a separate listing, and also an earlier 135mm f3.5, classic preset with the aperture rings at the front of the lens,.
