The chipworks website seems to be down; I keep getting a "Internal Server Error" since yesterday :(

Just because I linked to them on yesterday! ;-)
You generate that much traffic rice? :)

Somehow I doubt it was just you. :P
I am just kidding, of course. Chipworks is a large site btw and this is just a coincidence. :-)
Biggest surprise was that the d3200 sensor is nikon designed, not sony. Also, its clear that nikon prefers their own sensors but likes to have options. Other than that, did this article say much that we don't know about? Looks like canon really needs to catch up. Where's the rumored 46MP full frame I've been hearing about for years?

Hah. I did read that post. I didn't look that closely at the manufacturers for the sensors though. My bad. We can still be friends right? :p
also, if the k-5 replacement ended up with a sony nex-7 sensor it would have been a step back IMO.

I believe that Pentax APS-C development has been halted meanwhile, otherwise there would not have come the K-5II and IIs.
You are wrong.
By the way, completing a new camera (including a significant alteration of an older project) in less than 10 months, while also launching other products in the pipeline (K-01, K-30) is not possible. Not if they want to do it right.
