My CZJ lenses don't seem to figure in this list, Atilla. They all have 5-figure serial numbers.

I asked the same question earlier. If your lens is the black MC version it was probably made after 1975 when they changed the numbering system.

Thanks for the info...At least now I know that my "Zebra" finish 180mm f2.8 "Olympic" Sonnar was built between 1970 and 1975...Pity you cant narrow that down to each year between 1970-1975.

Hello Klaus,

Could you help date Carl Zeiss Jena microscope objectives, and microscopes?

Kind regards,
