Be amazed how many want to put it through a very SMALL PIC.

Seen a lot of them and if they looked at past posts first on embedded.com
they would have seen many times the similar thing said in a lot less
harsh terms.

The AT91SAM9XE has a built in CMOS sensor interface
and can interface directly to low cost SDRAM.
Running at 200 MHz with built in cache, it should
run in circles around the Cortex parts.
Can be had in a TQFP package.

If you want to go the lower cost approach, the SAM3S
also have sort of a sensor interface.
If can do DMA from parallel I/O

An AVR32 will have higher processing power than the Cortex-M3,
due to its DSP featured instruction set.

The ATXMEGA64A1 has DMA and Event system,
as well as an external bus, so you can
add large external memory to this AVR.
