Hi Mark:

> Anyone know how Oly did their lens number scheme?

In the absence of information to the contrary, the numbering starts with:
100001  for smaller production quantity items*
and
1000001  for larger production quantity items.

* Interestingly, the original OM-1 had a six digit serial number, indicating
that production probably exceeded initial projections.
