Quite likely. Soligor has been rebranding Chinese stuff for the European
market of late - i.e. the SLR camera sold in Europe as a Soligor is a
Seagull (Minolta MD mount). This probably has a similar origin. I've seen a
similar one on the used shelf here but there was no brand on it - lighter
and a bit bulkier in the base than a Winder 2.
