Hey, Nikon and Canon! There's a new kid on the block!

competition is good, I'll still stick with Canon. It's worked for my dad for 30 years, I could do 30 more.

It's not even a secret. =)

It's open cooperation between the two companies. Nikon makes the stuff that Sony uses to make the sensors, so they share the results...

Heck, Sony makes most of the sensors found in compacts, of many brands.
