[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 168908, member: 15356"] Soligor is just the brand name. The Soligor brand got their lenses made by other makers, so the brand isn't really a good one in my opinion on a consistant basis. The lens itself is a macro lens, but it's a manual focus ai lens. It was not built for the D3100 at all, that is for sure. to use this lens you lose pretty much all the advantages the D3100 offers, and have to set everything manually, if that is even possible for the D3100. but since I have hopes of going to a full frame nikon someday, I still have hopes this could be a good lens later if not right away. I only paid $25.00 for it so I thought it was worth the risk. :) [/QUOTE]
