I guess this was all a stupi april joke...

A bit of a cruel 'joke' I agree given the hopes and expectations it probably kicked off.

In some ways you hope the guy who wrote it suddenly finds his camera company dropping out of contention with a great pile of their lenses to his credit and there is no sanctuary at all whoever you are with nowadays. Would not wish that really on any user group but it is difficult not to imagine there will be at least one new Samsung bailing out this year. Probably a big volume producer. May as well be his.

True that, I knew the date already, so my first thought was "what an &$#&*#."  It also doesn't even make sense as the 108 MP is a phone sensor, so that was puzzling... and I already have one in my new (non-Samsung) phone.  It's super cruel to anyone that fell for it even for a second though.  That's really toying with people's emotions.
