[QUOTE="Peter7100, post: 749056, member: 48633"] Maybe I am missing something that is obvious and apologies if I am, but these sites all seem to only be able to give a rough range eg. 14 years or more. I know Canon have a date stamp on their lenses which allows you to find the exact year. When I am looking at Nikon 180 f2.8 if-Ed in the secondhand market, I can pin the serial numbers down to between 2006 and 2020 from the above mentioned sites but that is quite a gap if the seller can’t provide a history of the lens.
