Hi folks, are the following zoom lenses made in Japan for Leica and are they
stamped "Made in Japan" or "Made in Germany"?

28-70 mm f3.5-4.5 Vario Elmar ROM (Sigma, Japan?)
35-70 mm f4 Vario Elamr ROM  (Leica, Solm?)
80-200 mm f4 Vario Elamar ROM (Kyocera, Japan?)

I believe that the 28-70 is made by Sigma,  and I know that the 80-200 is
made by Kyocera but I do not know if they are stamped "Made in Japan"
