No, not that kind of date...
I've searched the web for a way to find the date of manufacture for this lens but come up short. Many sites state that Canon started dating their lenses in 1960 and supply a date code table to figure out the year of creation. One just has to check the code on the rear stamp on the lens. Though this lens is from the late '60's, there's just one problem, the lens has no rear stamp (unlike the FD lenses I own).
Any ideas guys?
BTW, the serial is 18XXX...
Thanks in advance! |
