The two companies are not merging just co-operating. Quite some time
ago I worked for a company that had a strategic alliance with a large
Japanese firm. It lasted for one project, especially after one of our
security people caught one of their engineers nosing around in our
files. These agreements can be formal or very informal and they last
only as long as both parties want them to.

Will the two eventually become Pentax-Samsung or will it become
Samsung-Pentax? Sort of in the ChevronTexaco ExxonMobil arrangement.
i.e. who will buy who. Who is most vulnerable?

I suspect Pentax, at least through the "L" series, will be Rebel's D

Seems all major dept. stores, with an electronics dept, shows at least
one version of the Rebel cabled to the counter.
I wish I didn't carry the long standing impression of Samsung as a
supplier of "cheap" products. My sense is they're saying,.."go ahead
and take a chance, after all, you're not investing much". Can't shake
it.
Have to say, this tech merge doesn't surprise me in the least. Logical
market oriented price fit.
Who is building the current Pentax sensor?
