Zuiko lenses production figures

A while ago I came across a website with the production figures of the OM

Zuiko lenses. It had been made up with the users' help according to serial

numbers. And now there's no way to find that site again. Can anybody help me?

Thanks to all and good pictures.

Do you mean this?

Thanks a lot Konrad, that's the one indeed! Do you know of any more official figures? Looks like this has been estimated from a limited number of lenses. No figures for rarities. Do you know how to become a member of that site?

The info on how to join the Olympus Mailing List, which had compiled the data is here: http://www.zuikoholic.com/

 

But you might first check what the current discussion is at: http://lists.tako.de/html/Olympus-OM/

 

(OM cameras and lenses seem a little bit outdated, and in the moment they are more interested in Diesel cars).

 

I am not aware of any "official" production figures. Here are a few which I think are reasonable:

 

50/1.8: 4,185,000; 50/1.4: 936,000; 75-150/4: 392,000; 28/3.5: 366,000; 135/3.5: 305,000; 28/2.8: 280,000; 35-70/4: 222,000; 35/2.8: 190,000; 200/4: 173,000; 50/3.5 macro: 162,000; 24/2.8: 123,000; 135/2.8: 118,000; 35-70/3.5-4.5: 116,000; 100/2.8: 98,000; 35-105/3.5-4.5: 81,000; 55/1.2: 66,000; 35/2: 59,000; 65-200/4: 56,000; 35-70/3.6: 54,000; .... 40/2: 9,800; 100/2: 9,000; 16/3.5: 7,800; 500/8: 7,200; 50-250/5: 6,500; .... 18/3.5: 5,500; ..... 180/2: ???400???

Dear Konrad, that's a lot of infos. Thank you very much. I see that only 400 of my dream lens, the 180/2 have been made! That's bad news. By the time I'll have saved enough, it'll be impossible to find one... too bad. And I'm not going to switch to digital soon.
