As Nikon buy there sensors from Sony, I imagine it will be coming to a Nikon camera soon. Interesting to see it's a CMOS sensor.

Why would Nikon want to remain beholden to their competitor? They have to buy their sensors from somebody, because they don't make them theirselves. Rick

IIRC even Canon buys some sensors from Sony (for the P&Ss) Have Fun, I believe that Nikon is developing their own sensors, and may be using them in production soon. Not sure though - internet rumors. It would be to their advantage, given that every penny that they give to Sony is helping Sony and not Nikon. Tom

Whether it does is another story. Paul
