==== Summary ====
The SMC Pentax-M 20mm f/4 is a compact ultra-wide-angle prime introduced in 1977 and produced until 1984, designed for full-frame K-mount film cameras. It was the smallest 20mm lens Pentax ever made, offering a 94° diagonal field of view in a body barely larger than a standard 50mm—making it a favorite for landscape, architecture, and travel photography where portability matters. It features an 8-element - 8-group optical design, Super Multi-Coating (SMC), and a 5-blade automatic diaphragm. The lens stops down to f/22, focuses as close as 25cm, and delivers 0.12× magnification. It uses a 49mm filter thread, weighs just 150g, and measures 63 × 29.5mm. It includes a dedicated rectangular clip-on hood, plastic cap, and was often sold with a hard case. There’s no “A” setting on the aperture ring, so it’s best used in manual or aperture-priority modes.
