===== Pentax 67 SMC Takumar 165mm f/2.8 ===== {{ :lens:pentax165mm6x7f2.8.png?300|}} ==== Summary ==== The SMC Pentax 67 / SMC Pentax-6×7 165mm f/2.8 is a fast, manual-focus short telephoto lens introduced in 1982 for the Pentax 6×7 medium format system, with a cosmetically updated version released in 1989 under the “67” branding. Optically identical across both versions, it was designed as a portrait and general-purpose telephoto, offering a field of view equivalent to an 85mm lens on 35mm format—making it a go-to choice for medium format portraiture. It features a 6-element - 5-group design with Super Multi-Coating (SMC) and a 10-blade automatic diaphragm, stopping down to f/22. The lens focuses as close as 1.6 meters, delivering a 0.13× magnification ratio, and uses a 67 mm filter thread. It includes a built-in sliding hood, inner bayonet mount, and was typically supplied with the S120-150 case. It measures 91.5 × 98.5mm, weighs 835g, and lacks internal focusing or weather sealing. There’s no “A” setting on the aperture ring, so metering is manual or stop-down only.\\ \\ __Came in two variants with similar specs:__\\ SMC Pentax-6x7 165mm f/2.8 in **1982**; SMC Pentax 67 165mm f/2.8 in **1989** ==== Tech Specs ==== | Manufacturer |Pentax| | Series |67| | Model |SMC Takumar| | Focal Length |165mm| | Max Aperture |f/2.8| | Min Aperture |f/22| | Format |6x7| | Image Circle |-| | Minimum Focus |160cm| | Focus Rotation |°| | Iris Blades |10| | Optical Design |6/5| | Squeeze |none| | Front Diameter |91.5mm| | Filter Thread |67mm| | Focus/Zoom Rod |none| | Native Mount |Pentax 6x7| | Data Protocol |none| | Length |98.5mm| | Weight |835g| | Body Telescope |-| | Body Material |-| | Focus Drive |-| | Iris Drive |-| | Zoom Drive |-| ==== History ==== Country of Origin: \\ Release Date: 1982 \\ Launch Price: \\ Design Revisions: \\ ==== Service ==== Service Manual: (Insert link to manual here) \\ \\ Full CLA: **TBD hrs.**\\ \\ ==== Cine-Mod ==== Focus Ring O.D.: -\\ Zoom Ring O.D.: -\\ Iris Ring O.D.: -\\ De-click Y/N: -\\ Additional Notes: \\ ==== Notes ==== ==== Media ====
