I am not in the market for anything. I can see why people are hesitant about manufacturing moving to another country. I am one of them, having been burned by it for expensive items. It takes a lot of ownership on the part of the external branch or contractor to care about the product as much as the original people. That said, this can happen in Japan itself too, where like other countries, products are switching hands and processes like clouds are changing. The Japanese still have pride in certain sectors such as food. I mean you can find a $100+ strawberry or mango that is worth the price, loving cultivated and selected by specialized farmers. Cameras, not so much.
