I’m sure you’ve heard of OmniVision before. If not, you’ve likely used one of their products. They’ve made every camera sensor for every model of iPhone to date. That’s why when they unveil something like the OV8820, we pretty much expect it to get soldered onto the next iPhone. So, why don’t we take a look at the features we might be seeing at a special event in Cupertino, just a few months early?

OmniVision has announced a new image sensor that reportedly really steps up the quality. The new 5 megapixel sensor can shoot in RAW with its back-illuminated CMOS design. It also has enhanced support for video, something your next iPhone would really like to have. Might I remind you that OmniVision is rumored to be supplying Apple’s next generation iPhone with a 5MP image sensor. Is this it?
