Has anyone used this lens? (Sicor 28 f/2.8)

[p.giannakis]

I found this lens on my local camera shop. It is for Nikon mount and the price is quite attractive.

Has anyone used one of these? Does it worth the time and money?

Thanks.

I have the Soligor 28mm F2.8 for Canon FD mount, which from what I understand is the same glass with a different mount and brand. I used it for a while up until the terrible FD rear cap jammed on the mount, and still haven't been able to fix it five years later...

In my experience, the performance was fairly mediocre wide open but decent enough for outdoor use stopped down to F8. No reason you can't make good pictures with one, but I wouldn't spend more than $20 on it!
