    Overview

    The Hanimex 200mm f/3.5 is an M42-mount manual focus lens imported from Japan, known for its smooth focus ring with a 270-degree throw. Optical strengths are not detailed, but build includes a built-in lens hood and 62mm filter threads. Weaknesses: the aperture can stick at f11-f22, the focus grip sticker may be fragile, and the lens hood is prone to denting. It weighs 655g and has a minimum focus of 2.7m. Suits users comfortable with manual focus and vintage lens quirks, especially on mirrorless cameras via adapter.
