EF 50mm f/1.8 II Anonymous
Are they supposed to be made in Japan?
Just bought one at Futureshop and it says made in malaysia :|

very early editions of the 1.8 II were made in japan

says in the rim of the focus ring, you can find pictures of them in google. new ones are no longer made in japan

Mine was made in Taiwan. I can't say I have any complaints. As low as there aren't any glaring imperfections, it's all good.
