Photax Photax 80-200mm f4.5

Overview

No reviews specific to a 'Photax 80-200mm f4.5' zoom lens in Minolta MD mount were provided. The supplied sources describe two different lenses: the SMC Pentax-M 80-200mm F4.5 (a Pentax K-mount push-pull zoom made 1979-1984 with a 15-element/12-group design, 8-blade diaphragm, and SMC coating), and a separately catalogued 'Photax 200mm f/4.5' which is a manual-focus PRIME lens in Pentax K mount, not a zoom and not Minolta MD. Because the exact lens named in this request cannot be matched to the reviews, its development context is unknown. No nicknames or community jargon for this specific lens are evidenced in the sources. Any cult following cannot be substantiated from the provided material.

Verdict: A profile cannot be responsibly written for the 'Photax 80-200mm f4.5 (Minolta MD)' because none of the supplied reviews describe that lens. The sources cover an SMC Pentax-M 80-200mm F4.5 zoom (Pentax K-mount) and a Photax 200mm f4.5 prime (Pentax K-mount). Please supply reviews for the correct lens/mount.
