BD,

There are indeed two versions, but the only difference is the lens hood:
from 1980-83 clip-on, after that built-in. The catalog numbers are 11814
and 11815 respectively. There are no optical differences between the
two.

The Canadian is a bit smaller than the German? Are there any optical performance
