AI Thread Summary
The iPhone 4S utilizes the Omnivision OV8830 sensor, which is noted for its five-element lens that enhances sharpness by 30 percent. There is speculation regarding the involvement of Sony in the camera's development, but the consensus points to Omnivision as the primary supplier for the sensor. Additionally, there are claims from a plant tour that a Japanese company manufactures parts for the optics of the iPhone, though it's unclear if they produce the entire image sensor specifically for the iPhone 4S.

According to some blogs it's Sony
I've been to a plant tour to a Japanese company once and they told us they make parts for the optics of the iPhone. Not sure if it's really the entire image sensor they are making and if it's for iPhone 4s
