Hmm, mine is serial 1106xx and, as you say, it is phenomenal. I was
absolutely sure it was a MC-version (has purple tint, can't really say about
the green) because of it's performance (fantastic in backlit situations,
sunset with sun in frame etc). But why are all MC 300's marked MC, as this
does not apply to other Zuikos? Is a brand-new 300/4.5 marked MC?
