==== Summary ====
The SMC Pentax-M 80–200mm f/4.5 is a manual-focus telephoto zoom lens for Pentax K-mount 35 mm and full-frame digital SLRs, produced from 1979 to 1984. It succeeded the earlier K-series version and came in two iterations—one a rebadged K lens, the other with a revised optical design. Both feature a 15-element/12-group construction, an 8-blade automatic diaphragm, and Pentax’s Super Multi-Coating (SMC) for improved contrast and flare resistance. With a constant f/4.5 aperture, it offers a versatile zoom range for portraits, nature, and compressed landscapes. The lens focuses down to 1.6m, delivers a 0.12× magnification, and uses a 52mm filter thread. It weighs 555g, measures 65 × 142mm, and includes a built-in slide-out hood. The one-touch push-pull zoom mechanism allows for quick focal length changes, though it can be prone to zoom creep when pointed downward.
