Deepak Bajracharya Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Namaste, How can one typically know the manufacturing date of the lens by its serial number? For example: Canon 8-64 serial # 30304 ( mine ) Is there any more infos that can be obtained from the serial number. Thanks in advance.

With best regards Are there a set of letters before the numbers? Canon has never officially given away their date codes, but I found a link to some info on it. http://www.bobatkins.com/photography/eosfaq/DATECODE.HTM Hope it helps!
