Contax 80-200mm Lens Specifications Page*

This lens covers all of the most desired telephoto focal lengths, yet delivers very natural contrast and outstanding color balance for superb image quality. The macro function provides a magnification ratio of 1:3:3 at a distance of 1m at 200mm. I opted for the 100-300mm, it's a little more expensive (about 2X the price) but it delivers a wider focal range in an equally compact package.

*Please note that Contax is Kaput! Kyrocera pulled the plug on the Contax camera system in 2005. So buyer beware. You'll only have used parts to service the camera with, and good luck finding a certified Contax camera technician
