Pentax Super-Takumar 6x7 200mm f/4 - Pentax 67 Mount

The Super-Takumar 6x7 200mm f/4 is a classic telephoto prime for the Pentax 67 medium format system. Offering a focal length equivalent to approximately 100mm in 35mm terms, it is a popular choice for portraiture and landscape work. The lens is built to a high standard with a solid metal barrel and features a built-in retractable lens hood. It is known for its pleasing bokeh and consistent performance across the frame. On the used market, the heavy internal glass elements should be checked for signs of movement or rattling. SDS ensures the aperture linkage at the rear of the lens is straight and functions correctly with the camera's meter coupling. The focusing helicoid should be tested for consistent resistance, as the weight of the optics can lead to uneven wear. We also check the built-in hood for smooth operation and ensure it stays in the extended position.
