Ours are made in Canada and I think all the E55 versions are made in Germany
No, there were many of the (older) newest version/E55 made in Canada; I had a Leitz Canada E55, serial #3047*** (which I traded for a Rokkor 58/1.2, and now use a newer German E55; the coatings were a different color, but I didn\'t find any optical differences when I had them side-by-side).
Note: E55 refers to the filter thread size; if the lens fits 55mm filters, it is an E55 lens (and, for the summicron-R 50, will have the built-in pull-out hood).
