It's all made in china-and to a very high standard-I'm a big fan of Japanese quality and I don't see much I think the Japanese would change-I have used an EM-5 for the last 2 years and is a terrific camera-not a minute's trouble-also made in China-The EM-1 feels even better-especially the 12-40mm pro lens-it feels and operates as top quality-I feel very few manufacturers beat the the Japanese head to head. But I'm very impressed with the EM-1 -just operate the zoom ring on the 12-40 lens and you'll be hooked

It is made in China. Best E-Mount lens I have. No issues. Very sharp and OSSworks very quiet. Great for video.

It was USA but I don't remember the warranty details as I returned the lens.

Made in China. This is a kit lens. Its far superior to the 2 kit lens that I got with my EPL2, both are now gathering dust in the closet somewhere. Best feature visible, it zooms without changing its size.

I do not know what it means. The lens is manufactured in Thailand. The Sony I have, A7s was manufactured in Thailand too. The new lens I got , a 24-240 was made in China. The 24-70 Vario Tessar is better in quality than the new lens I got but I prefer to have a wider zoom lens, for me it is not practical to be changing lenses. Nowadays most manufacturers are transferring manufacture to other countries to lower costas, most of Apple products are made in China. The only thing I can think about a Japanese version, is that it is the one sold in Japan.

The brand is Ordro. I believe it's made in Japan or China. It's a good camera. Sturdy, hi-def, easy to operate.

The lens I have is a Sony SEL50F18. It is made in China. Looking at photos I've taken, it is a very good lens.

I went to pick mine up after satisfying myself that they were indeed made in Japan. My experience with my old Canon A-20 Powershot convinced me there's a difference. I'd just purchased it (2002 ?) and the next week they introduced the A-40 which offered video as well. Since I was still inside my 30 day return window I picked up the A-40 and compared the two in detail for a couple of weeks. The A-20 was made in Japan and the A-40 was made in Malaysia, or Singapore, or Myanmar. I can't remember exactly. Big difference! Fit and finish was superb on the Japanese version. Poor on the other. In one of the zoom steps I came to see an out-of-focus area where the Japanese version was consistently sharp. I returned the A-40 and kept the A-20. Still works great. Now the 780. I went to Best-Buy to pick it up and at the last second I decided I'd better verify that it was Japanese too. Nope, it was Chinese. I explained my concerns to the checker and requested to examine their inventory for the Japanese version I wanted. Fortunately, I was in luck. There was only one amongst several Chinese examples. I snapped it up and it's been just wonderful. To be completely fair and honest I must confess that my earlier experience with the A-20 may not have any validity today. I didn't do an in-depth comparison between the Chinese/Japanese versions. For all I Know the Chinese version is the superior of the two. I was simply relying on my limited, singular experience. The reviews here at Amazon are pretty accurate. My only issue is the audible noise in video mode. If it's a quiet setting you WILL hear it. Not a problem for me. I use it mostly for dirtbiking, snowmobiling, and boating.

As far as I can tell it's manufactured in Thailand. Optically it's one of the best lenses I have, (I collect lenses including an extensive range of Leica glass). I'm not sure why you're asking but rest assured as far as quality is concerned you won't be left wanting.

This Canon EOS-1DX was made in Japan for U.S. market. I hope it helps. I have no problem with it so far.

The one I have is made in Thailand - like Withlin, I've found it a very good lens - it's the one I use most of the time

It is a great lens, but there are no markings to indicate country of origin. Since Olympus has 30 manufacturing locations world wide, I don't know how to determine this.

That is correct. This lens is made by Tamron in China rather than the Pentax lens factory in Viet Nam. It has essentially the same layout and optics as the Tamron 18-270mm for Canon and Nikon minus the internal image stabilization.

Mine is made in Japan. Even though I am an Olympus-camera-body fan, I have a few Panasonic micro 4/3 lenses in my collection due to their IQ (image quality).

Not exactly sure....probably china, if assume. But I will say, it's been on my Panasonic 20mm lens since I got it, and has protected it VERY well!

That I could not tell you. I still have my box for the lens and it has english and Japanese writing on it. The lens is a wonderful made and performing lens.
