Samsung is not going to buy Nikon, as Nikon is wholly owned by Mitsubishi and to the best of my knowledge, Mitsubishi has not even hinted at selling off Nikon. More important, investing today in a traditional camera manufacturer, even a heralded one such as Nikon, would be foolish as ther traditional camera market is a dead-end business.

I don't think it's likely, it was just an example of the random rumours that have been floating around lately..

IMHO, it would make sense for Samsung to sell its mirrorless technology to Nikon, while Samsung retains its sensor business and starts producing sensors for Nikon.

The future is with computational aperture cameras which is primarily a sensor business.
