Hmmm, can't see any news direct from Samsung, so just a rumour at the moment.
I'd have thought they'd start making and selling sensors for the ICL market and compete with Sony.
If they were to enter back into the camera market I don't know whether I'd purchase a point and shoot, an ILC perhaps.
Currently using the M43 system and was hoping for an organic sensor from Olympus or Panasonic but neither make sensors.
