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.

As printed on the camera's box, parts come from various places. The camera is assembled in the Philippines. the 18-135 lens that came with my camera, and additional lenses which I have purchased, were assembled in Vietnam.

Hmmm not exactly sure I know the lens is made in japan. So it's not American made. But I have it and it has been good to me

Not sure but this lens is very sharp. Somehow it can vibrate a little but the built of the lens is solid. Anyway, no complain as it cheap.

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.

C'mon, dude. There are NO Nikon lenses made in the USA. What you need to be concerned about is whether it has a USA warranty.

Yes Michael it is manufactured in Japan. It is not intended for use on a DX camera, this is a FX lens only.

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.

It says on box "made in Thailand". This is my second Zeiss. I still own the SEL24F18, both are built to extremely high standard, no flex at all. The only sub par component of the older Zeiss was the petal hood that fell apart in less than a year, I had to superglue it back together. The older lens has seen hell and still going strong after 3 years of heavy use. I tell you all this cos I was worried too, but when you see the images you get from the lens, wow! Also, unlike the other E mount Zeiss, I have not read about a single bad copy of the lens. Hope this helps

I could be wrong, but I believe designation between the VL and VM have to do with which lens come with that particular kit, and that the body is the same. I just pulled out my Magnifier and the a65 I've got says Made in Japan, though the lens says made in Thailand. hth

Yes it is. I will say this. There is Canon USA, which is lens manufactured, and imported directly for/to Canon. Then there is Canon lens NOT directly imported to Canon. They are imported directly to certain "sellers". It is a Canon lens. But you must understand that Canon lens can be made in various places/factories. However it's not a "Canon USA" lens. But by buying lens this way in my own opinion you save a ton of MONEY!

The body and lenses are genuine Canon. The camera body is made in Japan and both lenses are made in Taiwan, so take that for what it is...I think those at both standard manufacturing locations for their products. Hope this answers your question.

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).

As sold by Midwest Photo thru Amazon this is a " USA/six year warranty" official Tamron product. The lens is not made in the USA.

I don't remember it was probably made in China and I think the only thing I got was the lens I wasn't impressed with itif I had it to do over with I would've ordered it

Sorry, but its made in China. Still, seems to be of sufficient quality relative to the price. You'll have to spend about three times as much if you really want high quality optics. Its just the reality of the state of modern manufacturing. And yes, there is a detectable difference in quality between low price and higher priced products. You just need to decide if you want 'good' or 'good enough'..... these were 'good enough' for what I wanted and could afford.
