Recent lens purchases from B&H and other online retailers with great prices have all been assembled in other countries- Vietnam, China, etc.
Is there really a difference in quality and build from Japanese made lenses?

I ordered a Pentax DA 40mm limited from B&H Photography for $269. B&H assured me it was not a grey market, imported, or a refurb. It's brand new under US warranty.
How is B&H and other online companies able to offer this price below what Pentax online ($399) sells it for.
I've ordered from B&H before with no issues.

Gus,
Thanks for the welcome. My boss was at the zoo the day the tiger escaped.
Adolph Gasser is a fantastic photo shop for gear and information in the city. The sales staff are friendly and willing to help out a newbie.
I'm looking forward to taking outdoor pictures once the rain stops.

I did a lot of reading and my choice was between a Nikon D200 and The Pentax K10D. The Pentax won out.
I bought the new 18-250 lens, but I'm considering a prime and a macro lens. Hope to learn a lot from this group.
