Seems the Oly E-M5 uses a Sony sensor too. Can't remember off the top
of my head who makes Fuji's sensors, or even if anyone knows for sure,
but I don't think they're Sony made. If they are, they are at least
Fuji-designed. I'm pretty sure Pentax uses off-the-shelf Sony sensors
(so not Pentax-designed), which is fine given the great IQ they manage
to extract from them.
Cheers,
