    I've been using my son's Nikon 12-24 for quite a while and need to give it back to him. With getting ready to order a new one, I'm wondering if this lens is still made in Japan or now in China like the newer 10-24.

    Has anyone purchased a new one and know? It's not a big deal but just curious if they have changed the factory on this one.

    I feel like I'm nuts for not buying the newer 10-24 but have been very happy with the 12-24, like the fixed aperture and internal focusing.

    Thanks. I assumed either Thailand or China since it has been out for a number of years. Just ordered so I'll know at the end of the week.

    The 14 to 24 is made in Japan. I'd like to see a list of where things are made.

    Old thread here addressing the same question Wataru. Don't know if it answers your question though.
