On high-end products, I've often seen diffences between Japanese-made
and Chinese made products. Cheap plastic entry-level cameras with
variable-quality kit lenses are probably "safe" to be made in China,
but watch out when the D3s and 70-200mm f2.8's are beginning to come
from China. The D7000 falls somewhere in the middle.

The Chinese are already successfully running silicon foundries.

Camera are a low-tech joke by comparison.
