I'm a little surprised myself, seeing as all the other Canon Powershots I've purchased previously were all Made in Japan. I suppose for the price I can't complain too much, and it still seems to take decent shots.

I just received the gold and it says it's Made in China. Extremely disappointed, as I had read that this was Made in Japan.

I recently bought the black model here as well and it says China in extremely small print on the bottom. I'm not surprised.

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.

The SD 940 I purchased new from Amazon in March 2010 was made in Japan. By Dec 2010 the SD 940 (from the members only warehouse store) sold with case and memory card was made in China. I also have SD 780 bought new from Amazon in July 2009; made in Japan. Both cameras, treated like they fine crystal, produce amazing photos.

Anonymous is right, the SD1100is is being phased out because the SD1200is is replacing it. Don't get me wrong the 1100is is a great camera, I've had mine since October of last year and I love it, zero problems. The pros of the SD1200is are that it's cheap and takes great pictures. A bit more responsive than the 1100is. However, one con is that it's made in China, the 1100is was made in Japan. Forget about the 770, consider the 780, which is the newer model. Pros: very small, comes in many colors (4), tough metal body, made in Japan, and takes very nice pics and decent movie clips. Don't really know much about the 990 though. It is much bigger than the 1100, 1200, 770 and 780. What are you looking for in a point and shoot? Might help narrow down the choice for you. Hope this helps.

Canon is a global company with branches in the US, Europe, japan and Asia. I cannot tell you exactly which branch in which country makes that particular model though is it is available in US and Europe markets..

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.

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.

These are now made in China but if you get lucky some older stock are still made in Japan. There are several reviews about the difference and it's about half and half about the picture quality of the Chinese made model. Who knows you might get lucky. Cheers.

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.

From what I understand it is made by canon but it's made for other countries. So, basically it's a canon without the warranty. I've used mine quite a bit and haven't had a problem yet.

The camera I have was made in Japan. I don't understand you comment about the Leica lens but Leica is a German company. My Leica lens on the fz200 was manufactured by Leica but it does not break out the country and I don't know if Leica produces lens in other countries. I hope this helps.

My FZ200 says "Made In Japan" on the bottom. It continues to be an excellent camera. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
