You more or less have made a complete list. Not all popular brands are great though. Hasselblad, the industry standard is relatively unknown to most picture takers.

I think cannon is the best camera company in the world but sony will do. Now a days they are serving well.

Famous for what, and famous amongst which group of people? Canon still sell more cameras than other makers, so I guess it is very well known; Nikon is it great rival (like Pepsi to Coke) and both make fine cameras.
Horseman is famous amongst architectural and landscape photographers, but who else has heard of them?

Leica - Virtually invented 35mm photography.(Kodak made their 35mm cassette compatible with Leica, so other manufacturers had to use it.)
Zeiss - Finest quality cameras and lenses, invented M42 screw and the first pentaprism.
Rollei - Best known for their gorgeous TLRs
Exacta - The world's first 35mm SLR.
Hasselblad - Modular medium format SLRs high quality and matching prices.
Pentax - First Japanese SLR, first reliable instant-return mirror.
Minolta - First multimode SLR (XD-7), first successful autofocus SLR (7000AF).
Canon - Started out with Leica copies, now one of the big boys in the pro market.
Nikon - Copied the Zeiss Contax and tweaked it, the other big boy in the pro market (the Nikon F is a legend).
Kodak - Lousy cameras made cheap - made their money by having the film/processing side sewn up ( just about any film uses Kodak chemistry and most labs use their paper).
