As usual, your standard biased bullshit.

Check ANY camera lens barrel, or camera body, and see where it's made.
This is not a Pentax phenomenon. It is the way manufacturing is done
today.

Have you really read before making any reply? The labels do NOT show
any place of origin (so, how can you "see where it's made"? (well,
you're in America so the problem won't apply to you, though!)

I've no big concern on where it's made, provided that quality of the
products are good, but just people keep asking and I give an answer to
them.

Have you even *looked* at any recent Pentax equipment?
Both my DSLRs are clearly marked "Assembled in Philippines";
as I have both the oldest and newest models made by Pentax
it seems quite probable that the intervening models would
also have carried similar identification. The DA lenses
that I own are also quite visibly identified, on the lens
barrel, as having been "Assembled in Vietnam".

Sometimes I just wonder if you folks do ever read, before making any
sensible replies.

Pentax selectively to print the place of origin or NOT by countries for
where they shipped their products. See?

A sensible person trims irrelevant material from his quotes and places
his reply following.

And, no we folk make sensible replies without reading that to which we
respond.

For wedding photography I have found the fuji V10 excellent because of
low light capability and ASA 1600 rating. I just purchased the newer
Fuji F30 which is rated 3200 ASA and takes incredible stills at night
withourt a flash, also very nice movies in dark indoor settings.
