Hi Marc,

I've never had the 16, or even seen one in person, but I'd believe that.  I
do not believe the others though started production in Germany and them
production moved to Japan, as you've cited for the RTS lenses.  Referring to
the four more popular G lenses, the 28/35/45/90.

Regards,

Austin
