Pentax smc Pentax 67 200mm f/4 - Pentax 67 Mount

The smc Pentax 67 200mm f/4 is a telephoto prime lens designed for the Pentax 67 medium format system. It offers an equivalent focal length of approximately 100mm in 35mm terms, making it a suitable choice for portraiture and tight landscape compositions. The lens features a robust all-metal construction and a built-in sliding lens hood, providing a balance of reach and manageable weight for the 6x7 format. When inspecting a used copy, focus on the smoothness of the manual focus ring, as the heavy glass elements can lead to stiffness if the internal lubricants have dried. We check the integrated hood for any dents that might impede its movement. The optical elements are examined for internal dust and haze, which can occur in older medium format optics, though the smc coating is generally resilient.
