And they're both manufactured by Sanyo.
Hi Mark,
is this common knowledge? Does Sharp build for Premier or is it Premier who builds for Sharp?
Premier claims to be one of the major manufacturers with a market share of 15 %.
The Optio 50 sensor probably is not from Sanyo, but from Sharp. I don't know about the lenses - maybe actually the Premier lenses are from Pentax? The LCD could be Sanyo?
Maybe that Sanyo does not sell the items they build with a Sanyo label: All they name is VPC-R1 (1.3 MP) VPC-MZ3 (2.0 MP) VPC-J1 Xacti (3.2 MP) VPC-AZ3 (4.0 MP)
I guess you might know better than I do - but for the moment I'd expect Premier as the real builder!?
