Canon does (develops) their own sensors ; a company that size can. They may even do their own fab. Nikon doesn't buy off the shelf parts. Kodak will probably come out with a new DCS camera. I would be amazed if Pentax came out with anything more sophisticated than a DZLR. From: "Rob Brigham" <[

I would say that by 12MP any advantage that film has is mostly theoretical. One would have to have a top grade lens, tripod and fine grained film to get a resolution advantage. I'm not saying that the Dimage is great, but with effective optical ranges of 28-200mm most people would be quite satisfi
