Hi Paul - Nikon man myself but I think you may find these links help
LINK http://www.bobatkins.com/photography...q/DATECODE.HTM LINK http://www.markerink.org/WJM/HTML/eos_age.htm LINK http://photo.net/canon-fd-camera-forum/00M91l That may help I hope but as for telling if it is a "genuine" Canon lens I suppose only the manufacturers can tell you - But I have to say I've not heard of any counterfeit lenses.

Hi Andy,
Thanks mate for your help. I have never heard of it either but buying off ebay i thiught i would ask the question just in case. I have since purchased the lens and cant wait for it to arrive so i can play. All the write ups on the canon lens seem to be very good. Again thanks for your help Paul...
