From what I'm told they are about the same camera, just marketed differently around the world. I was also told the Kiss comes with a better lens.
Answer
To combat the "gray market" Canon has given the same camera different names or designations.
JAPAN: EOS KISS DIGITAL X
AMERICA: EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi
EUROPE, ASIA, OCEANIA: EOS 400D DIGITAL
A "gray market" camera (or lens) is one bought in another country with a better currency exchange rate and imported - legally - into a country where it can be sold for less than a camera imported by the licensed importer. So an importer buys cameras and lenses in Singapore, imports them into the USA and undersells ones imported by the USA affiliate of Canon, Nikon, etc.
Although this is legal, the consumer who buys a "Gray Market" camera or lens has no USA warranty protection. The warranty is only good where the camera or lens was originally sold.

Canon S5 IS digital cameras made in Japan or China. Is there a difference, if so what???
Big B-Man
I've been looking on Ebay for this digital camera. People always ask if it's made in Japan or China. Is quality better or is it just loyalty for ones own country? Please help on this matter. Thanks Yahoo Ask members.
Answer
Canon makes cameras where it is cheapest. They do not have 1 factory in Japan and another in China making the same camera. This is a myth. Just buy the S5 if dats what U want. Old salesman trick: oh, don't get the Chinese version, you want the expensive Japanese version. If they try dat with U, find another store.
