Hello,
Do you know how many 180-600mm f/8 ED have been manufactured in Ai-S version? Do you have an idea of the range of serial numbers? Thanks for your replies. |

Hello Kiu,
Thank you for your reply but I already knew Roland Vink's website. Unfortunately, regarding Zoom-Nikkor Ai-S 180-600mm f/8 ED, only a partial range of serial numbers is listed on it : 174701 to 175040 while I have been aware of one with serial number 175213. Regards. |

Can you confirm the serial number of the 180-600 lens? If so I'll add it to my list :-)

Hi Roland,
First, congratulations for your amazing website... It is often useful for me! Yes, I do confirm this serial number because I own that lens! Regards, "NikonRF" (former "nicalei") PS. I switched to a new username a couple of weeks ago because I was not able to use 'nicalei' anymore... I do not know why... It seems that something had been modified with ezboard system! |

Thanks NikonRF,
I have added your lens to my database and updated the web site. The serial numbers collected so far indicate at least 513 AIS 180-600/8 lenses were made. The new serial number page now groups versions with continuous serial numbers and gives the qty based on the serial numbers, so it's easy to get an idea of how many were made. I'm also investigating a lens with a 700xxx serial number, a friend has one. The lens is a normal AIS 180-600 but the serial number does not match anything I have seen before. Have you ever come across one like that? |

I have a beautiful Nikon Zoom ED 180-600 f/8 AI-S Lens in the original box, caps, lens strap and warranty card.
Would like to put it up for sale, does the Nikon Historical Society have a reputable site to list the lense on and a way to value it? Thanks. |

eBay would do its job if a good add were posted (basically: clear pictures, smart title, honest/complete description, two categories and no reserve). Best luck!
