So, I would like to ask for volunteers who know the year of manufacture (or purchase, if bought new) of their Nikon SLRs to post details of their Nikon SLR serial numbers (or at least the first 3 or 4 digits :wink, so that the rest of us can get an idea when our cameras were built.
Obviously, if (like me :redface you own Nikon SLRs but don't know the year of manufacture, there's not much point in posting just the serial number here. Still, if we can at least get some posts from those who do have a fairly good idea of the year that their camera hails from, then we could all benefit from that knowledge :smile:.
This thread is open to any Nikon SLRs (and RFs too, I guess). If we are lucky enough to get lots of posts, then it should be easy for forum members to simply put the model that they are interested in into the 'Search' function and bring up any entries for it that way :smile:. (Personally, I would love to hear from any FA owners who could help me find out what year a 5304XXX serial number belongs to :biggrin.
As I said, there appears to be no official source for this info (but please do correct me if I'm wrong), so please take part in the thread if you have anything at all to share . Thanks!

Nikon Camera Body Serial Numbers
Where is the serial number on my Nikon camera? Nikon Camera. Serial Number Location. Current COOLPIX P, S, L, series. Serial number can be located on the sticker describing the camera model, at the bottom of the camera. New Nikon cameras are accompanied by a warranty card. Check carefully for any errors in spelling and that the serial number featured matches the serial number found on the camera and retail box label. That's why the second digit isn't just part of the serial number itself: it’s also reserved as a special region indicator, when needed. In other words, while US products normally would be 30, 31, 3239 in initial numbers, Nikon has set things up so that they could make, say, a 25 region code that's US for a product (normally that would be Japan).
