I'm sure Pentax will have something to say about the quality of sensors put into cameras, that are somewhat connected to the Pentax name. Samsung is an experienced camera maker (Rollei w. Schneider lenses) and maker of all kinds of consumer electronics - inculding mobile phones. If Korean Samsung wanted to make cheap (crap) cameras, they could easily do so without any help from renowned Pentax, Schneider or whatever.
Unless - of course - Pentax is planning to stop making cameras and just make lenses etc. for Samsung - like Konica-Minolta seems to be planning to, for SONY.

I am with Rob on that, common sense amplified by the fact (??? Anyone care to correct me? Please say I am wrong :-) that Samsung P&S cameras are not acclaimed for their sensor technology. I of course hope they can surprise us. Kostas
