BTW Marc, following the same old thread I found a
message where you explain the way to interpret the
system (I copied the entire file for better
clarification)
" Bernard Cousineau wrote:

My SL2000F would have

or 1988, which is
either 2 years before the

Bernard, I think you have the system wrong -- I had to
rethink it myself,
as I made the identical mistake you are making.
When Sven wrote, "Digit 1 plus 5 stands for the year
of manufacture", he
meant, "Digit 1 plus Numeric 5" or "add the number 5
to Digit 1". Thus,
with his 6008, body number 404330018, you take the
first digit -- "4" --
and add 5, to produce nine.
Digits 4 and 5, less 20, are used to define the week
of manufacture. In
the case of Sven's camera, this would be "33" which,
less 20, produces "13"
as the week of manufacture -- probably the week of 24
FEB 89 to 1 MAR 89, I
reckon.
Best,
Marc"
I think your explanation is interesting to avoid
errors interpreting the system.-
All the best
Carlos
