Carl Zeiss Jena was the East German side. I believe the name could not
be used on lenses imported and sold in the US (& Canada?) because of
trademark conflict with the other Carl Zeiss. I seem to recall that the
CZJ zooms were characterized as run of the mill in general, but I don't
remember any specifics - or if there were any. Sounds like you should be
looking for a backup, if you keep dropping it. Safety cord or net help?
