Sony Sensors in Canon's 5DS?

So last week a rumor began circling the net that the new Canon 5DS's 50 megapixel camera would have a Sony sensor.  This is not a new rumor, every few months it seems speculation swirls about Canon using Sony technology.  But it appears this rumor is only half true.

According to CanonPriceWatch.com:

"[…] the sensor is not designed by Sony – it is in fact designed entirely by Canon. It is true that Sony is manufacturing the sensors but they are not the ones who designed it, Canon is simply leveraging the manufacturing capabilities of Sony to get the volume of sensors needed to get these cameras to the market. The sensors used in these cameras are exclusive to Canon […]"

At least we do not have to wait long to find out, Canon is expected to announce the new 5DS and 5DS R camera bodies tomorrow.
