The way to buy market share with a differentiated product is to sell low prices, sometimes below cost. They already bought Minolta, but that's a brand not market share. I worked for two different companies that bought their competitors and called the same cube home the whole time. They didn't buy market share though, they lost it.

Who would they buy?  Not Pentax with only 5% market share and it's own
proprietary lens mount (as all have).  Not Olympus for like reasons.
Likely not Canon or Nikon.

Sony has been known to buy market share.
