This is correct.  I've read the press release in a
newspaper.  They have been making only high end cameras in
Japan, but it's been the same case with Pentax that it's
too expensive to make film cameras in Japan.

They will concentrate all their film cameras production in
China, to make it more profitable.

Sincerely,
