1) They are scare that bad foreigners will resell these Cameras overseas (US is now cheaper than Japan on this matter)

2) According to Sanyo, if a product has other menus than Japanese, this product then bound to be exported, and the JP government has a special tax for that.

Nice comparison. I struggling in my mind to make a decision what to buy last week and finally thought to go for TX1. After reading your review now I know I made the right choice. Do you know where I can buy one of these with English menus in Japan? I was at Yodabashi before but they don’t offer models with English.

Cheers
Ryan
