Hey guys....quick question.
My 100-400mm is on the fritz and needs to be sent in for servicing -- it will only focus properly from about 120-180mm.
But that's not my question. When I was getting ready to send it in, I did the customary examination of the lens. But when I went to look for the lens date code, I noticed there was nothing opposite the lens-to-body electrical connectors like all my others L's.
I bought this lens back in 2009 when I needed it for a year of shooting photos for a youth rec soccer league. I purchased it used from Adorama so perhaps that's why I may not have paid attention to this before.
I called the only person I know that has a 100-400mm, and his has the date right where I was expecting it. Maybe someone else can help me figure out what's going on.
Thanks!
