There is no reason for concern, regardless of where a product is manufactured the camera will still meet Nikon's specifications. Nikon usually only makes a handful of their higher end DSLR cameras in Japan.

how could you recognize that your canon camera is made in Japan and not in somewhere else?

I bought mine in November 17, and it made the long trip from USA to Peru, i bought it in NYC, happily, the camera says : made in Japan, i trust Japanese´s quality control, and i agree with the comment of NLee the ingineer dic/28,Canon has a very good reputation and they always are supervising the productions of their products wherever it made, but if i have to choose, Japan of course!

The one I ordered from Amazon is made in Japan. However, the 14-42 mm kit lens and the battery are made in China.

It is made in Japan. There is a video on youtube about how they do it. I love mine!

Japan from all I can find. I thought I saw it on the camera at some point. It is on the box and the extra lense I bought.

Thanks for your great response NLee the Engineer. I already put in for a return to Amazon. Worse case, if I decide to re-purchase, I will be getting a free SD card in the deal. Its really a shame that the "Made in China" has such a negative stigma to it. I am sorry to hear that streamlined processes get moved to off-shore factories. I guess if I never read the responses posted here, I would never notice the difference but once you are informed, there is no going back. I looked at my last Canon SD500 camera and it was "made in Japan".

Panasonic is a Japanese company. Thus I would assume that most parts for the camera are made in Japan. However, not all the parts are made in Japan. For example, it has a Leica lens, which is made in Germany.

I believe it is. It took a long time to arrive to my location and it said made in Japan.

I assume I received one made for Japan, since the box had mostly Japanese language on it with smaller English writing. Nevertheless, when you first power up the camera, it asks you what language to use. The English on the screens/camera guide is grammatically correct and I haven't had any issues with language/compatibility. I just got back from an EPIC trip to New Zealand and this camera performed superbly! GPS tagging/logging during hikes/wifi transfer worked great. Oh yeah; it took excellent pictures/panoramas/movies. I would definitely recommend this camera for world adventures.

Currently they only sell this in Japan..... They will start selling this camera in the states (or your country) in 2014.if you buy this item from this seller now, they ship you directly from Japan....thats why they say import model.i bought it from them months ago, fast ship and item as is described.

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.

No, of course not. You will only find made in Japan in super high price tagged items like high end cameras. It is made in China. Country of origin should be mandatory in product description in the copy for every item. The power of living group s writing against consumers' interests.

No. The camcorder itself is made in China. Battery etc. are made in different countries.
