Is this model currently made in Japan? I am reading conflicting reviews as of recent, I want to make sure you did not switch models. Thanks!

I am not sure of the country of origin for the 46 mm filter. The one I purchased is a Hoya 58mm UV(C). It was made in the Philippines. It works just fine with no problems.

mine is from the Philippines as well. A model is made japan, but when you purchase on line you do not know which model you will receive.

I have no idea. I will double check on the lens cover itself. I no longer have the box.

Could you tell me if the place of origin has anything to do with whether or not Canon will honor the warranty? I was told by a vendor that if a canon camcorder was a "Japanese" model, Canon would not honor the warranty, and that if it was a US camcorder, they would. Is that true and how can you tell if the camcorder you buy is one or the other?

The one I bought was made in Japan. It says right next to the little screen. Good luck!

Although this is an older question, I will add to the answer as to possibly help people still wondering. The Tanita HD351 scale is still made in Japan. I inquired with Tanita USA prior to purchasing and was told this particular model is made in Japan. This scale is accurate and has excellent build quality. Much nicer than prior scales I've owned.

I received mine today (March 2, 2015) and it is made in Thailand. I was hoping they were still made in Japan.

I'm assuming your question was directed towards SWFA, but the one that I purchased was still made in Japan.

I'm sure mine was made in Japan, do not know if they are made elsewhere now. Very well built.

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). :-)

It looks like just different wording spec. for Japan, along with the model number change from LV61 to LV52

No, China which disappointed me. I believe the more expensive model is made in Japan.

I know the company its being imported from which is Century in Tokyo. The home company web site is http://www.century.co.jp/ and the have an English language version if you click that link on the home page. The reason I know is that the sales rep working with the USA company importing it is an old friend and told me about it. As to whether they make in in Japan, I don't know for certain but I bought a unit myself and was impressed with the quality. It seemed like what I would expect from a Japanese electronics product.

Yes it is. I'd advise you buy from the U.K or U.S if you want to enjoy durability and quality. It's not like the Japan versions aren't good...they are, but they just aren't at their best yet.

The Model/Serial Number label on my unit shows Model # NS-WAC10. However, close examination of the fine print indicates "Made in China". Perhaps Zojirushi has misrepresented this item to AMAZON. As to the quality: The quality is equal to that of a different model Zojirushi I gave to my son, and that one indicated "Made in Japan".

Hey. The Pentax is not made in Japan. It doesn't say so on the bottom of the camera I got. I think it says assembled in Vietnam or Philippines. I guess what they've done is that the parts must be Japanese but assembled in Vietnam or Philippines to keep the price low.Having said that, the quality and the feel of the camera is top knotch. Amazing camera. I couldn't be more happier than my buy.
