Hi Dana,

Canon has from the beginning made its own sensor, I read that in a magazine today.

There are only a few sensor makers in the world. Canon and Sony are two of them.

Got to be any number of manufacturers as Sigma has their sensors as well & they are totally different than the CCD & CMOS sensors out there in the market. Nikon does make sensors as well, but only for certain models...

I read somewhere that Sony A6300 and Canon 1DX MK II have the same sensor. Could this be true?
