    You have delusions the film industry is so big and strategic as to be
    used for punishment?

    Generally the only punishment China deals to Japan is low prices and
    please order everything you want.

    Funny how capitalist these "chicom"'s are...

    Khrushchev of the failed Soviet Communist empire?

    Did you fall asleep in 1988 or something?

    The "Chicoms" are getting better and better at making lenses.

    I'm currently pondering whether to buy the Laowa 6mm for MFT.
    Still hesitating because I have the Oly 8-25mm, which is more versatile
    and has AF. But to get the FOV of the Laowa 6mm I'd have to pano stich
    at least two 8mm images of the 8-25.

    Heh heh. I love how Americans and the Administration rail against the Chinese, worrying about piddling little bits of potential espionage while happily spending hundreds of billions of their own money on goods from China ever year...
