    Overview

    The CPC Phase 2 CCT MC Auto 80-200 mm f/3.8 is a multicoated telephoto zoom lens with a constant f/3.8 aperture, designed for manual-focus 35mm SLRs. It features a pump-action zoom and focus mechanism; zooming does not change length, but focusing extends the barrel and rotates the front element. Optical strengths are not detailed, but weaknesses include no intermediate aperture stops and limited macro capability at 1:4 magnification. Build is typical for its era, with a textured pump. It suits vintage camera enthusiasts seeking a rare, discontinued zoom lens.
