Hi, is there a way to know the 7D Camera Body Manufacture Date ?, usually you can get this data from the Body S/N, but I have not been able to get that information, any feedback ?, thanks

The S/N translates to a code that reveals not only the build date but also which assembly table it came from (all Canon product S/N's work this way), but as far as I know it is not public knowledge.
