Sony makes the best sensors and Nikon then tweaks them to make them better and to their specifications.
Pentax also uses Sony, Canon makes their own and I am not sure on Olympus and others.
Not a big deal because it happens all over. Apple and Samsung are suing each other but that lovely screen on the new iPad is a Samsung.
as to the \"best\" i wouldn\'t want to say that as if it were a fact. there are a few more makers that generally don\'t show up on the \"well known\" radar. the former \"Kodak KAF \" sensors (now in the hands of an investor group after being sold off and called Truesense) and Dalsa (which has a few products out there that are \"beyond the average\")
