Makinon MC 80-200mm f4.5 Fuji FX Mount

Excellent cosmetic condition, fully operational, optics have a very small amount of dust, nothing that would make any difference!

General Makinon Information

Makinon MC Auto-Zoom 80-200mm f4.5 is another example of a zoom lenses made by the company. It features multicoating, a constant aperture and decent optics. Mechanical quality and reliability were also good and as a result, today one can find a lot of Makinon zooms in very good condition.
This lens has the Minolta MD/MC mount, but it can also be found in M42 and Pentax K mount. The lens is large and rather heavy, so its usability of small cameras is not so great. As most vintage zoom lenses, the Makinon MC Auto-Zoom 80-200mm f4.5 offers constant aperture which makes things a lot easier.
The Makinon MC Auto-Zoom 80-200mm f4.5 weighs 612g and it has a minimum focusing distance of 1.7m. Filter diameter: 55. Mount: Minolta MD/MC, Pentax K, M42.

Makinon or Makina Optical Co. Ltd. was a small Japanese lens and camera manufacturer. The company was founded in 1967 and at first sold lenses to third party companies, such as Vivitar or Hanimex. During the 1970s they began selling products under their own brand, so the Makinon lenses entered the market. The company had a pretty strong line-up, ranging from 24mm to 1000mm lenses, as well as a number of zooms. Our experience with Makinon lenses was a pleasant one, as they are well built, reliable and have decent optics. Most of the Makinon lenses out there are in the M42 (Pentax) mount, but we also found some in the Minolta MD mount.

Apparently, the company went out of business in the 1980s, as the market was shifting from manual to auto-focus lenses, mainly because it was difficult for a small company to develop and to market increasingly complex designs.

Looking after your camera

Use a Camera Bag

A camera bag does more than just protect the camera against scratches and dust: It keeps it safe from rain because many are waterproof on the outside.

Be Very Careful Around the LCD Screen and Camera Lens

Use only special equipment to clean your camera’s LCD screen and camera lens. Buy a special cleaning kit that includes liquid solutions, microfiber cloths and brushes that have been specially designed to clean your camera lens.

Never Leave Your Batteries in Your Camera for Too Long
Many camera batteries are now alkaline or lithium formats. If you keep your camera with the batteries inside of it in a moist area, then the batteries can get corrosive. So if you’re thinking about just putting your camera on the shelf for several months, do yourself a favor and remove them.

Turn Your Camera Off Prior to Doing Anything

Before you do anything to your camera, always keep in mind that it should be turned off first. No matter what it is—swapping lenses, changing memory cards or disconnecting or attaching cables—your camera should be turned off.

Cold and Wet Weather Can Wreak Havoc on Your Camera Body
Take your camera out only in a waterproof bag. If the weather’s unusually cold, just wrap your camera in a plastic bag that has silica desiccant packets for the reduction of moisture. It’s also a smart idea to have a soft towel with you to wipe off any moisture, just in case it should get on your camera.

Good Memory Card Care Is Good Camera Care

Only transport your memory cards inside of a protective caseMake sure the memory cards stay dust-free at all times. When removing memory cards, make sure you do so indoors or in non-dusty situations.
Make sure that you keep memory cards only in cool places. Never keep them in places where they may heat up, like dashboards or glove compartments.
Never place your memory cards close to magnetic sources. Examples of magnetic sources are things such as audio speakers, TV monitors and actual magnets.

Use a Filter to Protect Your Camera Lens

The lens of your camera is naturally fragile. As such, it’s susceptible to scratches, cracks, dents…you name it. A UV filter will not only will you give your lens a fighting chance, but you’ll also enhance the quality of your pictures.

Condensation Can Be Controlled

Condensation normally happens when you move your camera between different temperatures.
Allow your camera a chance to naturally get used to the hotter environment. Don’t place it inside a closed plastic bag when transporting it between different temperatures! Just let the camera sit in the humid temperature for a while, until condensation disappears.
If this still doesn’t get rid of all of it, you can utilize a soft cloth to wipe away any remaining moisture and marks left behind from the condensation.
