Hi Tahir,

I haven't been able to determine with absolute certainty, but I believe that all A710s are manufactured in Japan. Either way, I would assume that even if they were manufactured elsewhere, they would be of similar quality. Good luck!

The Canons are typically made in Japan or Taiwan. Some people believe there's a quality difference between cameras made in these two different countries. I say that the manufacturing process is tightly regulated (Canon has the money to do that, heh) and there really is not a difference. Some people may disagree with me, but honestly, I wouldn't worry about it at all.
