The Soligor Auto 50mm f/1.8, serial number 1086038, is a fast manual focus standard prime lens produced in the 1970s and 1980s. Soligor lenses were manufactured by various optical companies (often by Tokina or Sun) and rebranded under the Soligor name. Despite being third-party, these lenses are often well-built and optically decent, offering a budget-friendly alternative to OEM lenses.

The f/1.8 maximum aperture makes it well-suited for low-light shooting, portraits, and creative shallow depth of fieldeffects.
