Yes, keep it.
Its a true curiosity if little known. Quite collectible.
You have the nicer chrome and black version in the original makers (Fujita) brand. _________________ I like Pentax DSLR's, Exaktas, M42 bodies of all kinds, strange and cheap Japanese lenses, and am dabbling in medium format/Speed Graphic work. |

Nice results, with a definite "cool factor". Good collector piece. Fujita made some Soligor-branded lenses as well as others IIRC. |

Tiny lenses appeal to me, but I've never bothered with the Tamron or Fujita because I have the J11 4/135 and Schneider Tele-Xenar 4/135, which are not as tiny, but are still pretty small. I see the Fujita (sometimes in other brands) from time to time on ebay, maybe one day I'll get curious.
