Sony is from Japan (Ive driven past their headquarters in japan. However, whether they outsource to other countries like the u.s. does (probably) is beyond me.

Mine is clearly marked "made in China" but it seems to be very reliable, is built very solidly and works pretty much as expected. Almost every consumer electronic product retailing at under $1000 of Japanese design is now made in China or Korea. This is clearly a Tascam designed product, and hopefully, Tascam also oversees the quality assurance of the production line. They are , of course, putting their corporate reputation on the line. It's interesting that many people today see Japanese made products as a "gold standard". I'm old enough to remember when most Japanese export products were literally made out of metal recycled from soda and beer cans and were likely to fail in the first few minutes of operation, if they worked at all. Just wait a couple of years and there will be people wishing for Chinese manufactured electronic products, since most production will then be shifted to Iraq and Afghanistan. Anyway, China or Japan, it really shouldn't matter if the device works well (as long as you don't worry about it being made of lead, melamine and used Toyota accelerator pedal assemblies). :-)

Best guess would be China or Taiwan like most electronics these days, but that's only a guess. Not only does this work fine with the Lumia 1520 so does the SanDisk 128gb version.

Hi, it is made in china. It worked fine for me.... I'm an amateur photographer but it worked quite fine. It is VR, ED, and all what they claim.

"Designed and engineered in Japan, but made in China" is what my headphone box states!

Mine said it's made in Japan on the lens. I bought mine when this fist came out though

I have no idea. The whole camera was made in Japan, and there is no indication that the lens was made in another place. I suggest you call and ask. Their number in the US: 800-211-7262.

I have the lens before me and there are no markings to indicate where it was manufactured or assembled. I've read that it is manufactured by Sony (Japan?), under Zeiss requirements. In any event, the quality of manufacture is first rate, as is the lens output.

I bought the camera a few months ago as an amazon warehouse deal. Mine, according to the information plate/sticker on the bottom of the camcorder, is made in China.

Assembled in Thailand. Very little is actually made in Japan anymore...kind of like the USA. Doesn't mean inferior quality, though! Designs, manufacturing process, quality control are Nikon Japan, which has way too long a history of top product quality to risk it at all. Quality of my D5300 is fantastic!

I just looked at mine: made in japan it's an Olympus batt. Mine still going strong!

Nope. I believe it's China. We personally have had absolutely no quality problems, but I've heard of a few who have. Overall, though, I think it's more reliable than, say, the competitive products from Zoom and others in the same price range.

The camera itself is made in Japan. You'll find your model no. on the bottom for registration along with the printed "Made in Japan".

Mine also says "made in china". However, it is a GREAT camera with more features that I will probably never use.

Mine says "Made in Japan" right below the Nikon logo on the lens barrel closest to the camera. Were it not made in Japan I would not have bought it. There is too much money involved to get one made ion a production factory in the near East or other outsourced locations. As I said in my review, on my D800, this lens produces spectacular results. Sharp edge to edge, corner to corner, with no need for any distortion corrections.
