To use an analogy, OV doesn't want to slay the tiger in the forest, it just wants to run faster than any other prey that the tiger may face! <br /><br />that sort of sums up OV's approach. all said and done, it has been a business that has consistently delivered profits for the stakeholders, secure employment for its employees, etc. It's no mean achievement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-26299360797667243382015-05-31T10:23:45.918+03:002015-05-31T10:23:45.918+03:00Of course OVT is a fantastic company and so is Mr....Of course OVT is a fantastic company and so is Mr. Hong.

Except in two places, the author think the two camera quality is almost indistinguishable. The difference in the two places may be due to the resolution differences. <br />http://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/ipad/ipad-air-1-vs-ipad-air-2-camera-comparisons-3582654/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-35320421841410798822015-05-31T01:40:34.474+03:002015-05-31T01:40:34.474+03:00I have to give Mr. Hong a lot of respect for build...I have to give Mr. Hong a lot of respect for building OVT over the years. I have lots of issues with Omnivision, but still have to respect what they have accomplished, especially up against Samsung and Sony these days!

Just look the quality of the OV sensor inside iPad, a lot of noise. Their CEO is too old.

The rear sensor is 8MP BSI. Except for the resolution difference the SONY sensor is not better than Omnivision. So how did the CEO lost Apple? My theory is this. After Aptina lost to Omnivison in iPhone 3GS image sensor, several Aptina employees went to Apple. Some may have played a pivotal role in Apple abandoning Omnivision.<br /><br />Omnivision IPOed in 2000. In 15 years the stock price is still roughly equal to its high in 2000. In the meantime, the CEO awarded himself with lots of shares which he dumped to ignorant shareholders. Despite accumulating over $500 million in cash, he never thought of returning some to the shareholders. Yet he makes lots of money from shareholders. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
