Pros: Foveon X3 sensor among the first products from Sigma, fixed lens valid as all Sigma in fixed versions.

Cons: Absolutely uncomfortable controls, as well as the handle, practically useless display, very delicate lens escape mechanism.

Opinion: A compact of the first versions of the Sigma / Foveon combination, ergonomics of the controls practically non-existent, display useful only for the function menu, slow and inaccurate autofocus with low light. Excellent lens even if not very bright (f4). For the rest we can only talk about the sensor X3 version 2009, few Mpx (4.7) if compared with the Merril of the SD1 or the Quattro of the normal SD or H. It is not easy to use is very picky wants the light that she says, but when she finds it is really "moving" what she can do, beautiful colors, realistic, very similar to the film to be exact to the old Kodak Chrome. As for the resolution of detail if compared to the miserable 4.7 Mpx is absolutely amazing, but perhaps it would be more correct to say sharpness to stay on the film theme. For black and white it goes without saying that you get beautiful files, with a really good tonal range, if the Quattro sensor is comparable to an Adox CMS 20 film, this is like a Trix 400. For the opening of X3f files it is necessary as obvious Sigma Photo Pro, unfortunately there is no possibility to convert to B & W with the Monochrome button (as for all other X3f files), so it must be desaturated by white balance choosing monochrome. You can use for printing the Tiff file obtained from Sigma Photo Pro, or continue with the PP on other software, personally I use Raw Therapee, excellent ability to shoot even at 50 ISO, advisable not to exceed 100 ISO in color and 200 ISO in B & W, does not digest highlights, so it is advisable, in the case of contrasting shots, underexpose a lot and then retrieve the shadows with the Fill Light command of Sigma Photo Pro. As for the famous dominant "busted" Foveon, they are not as recurrent as they say, it suffers when the delta EV is too wide and you try to force the shot, in backlight or in mixed lights (natural and artificial). If you find it on the second-hand market, with 150/200 euros you take home a small jewel, difficult to use, but that can give truly exceptional shots.

Pros: outstanding fixed lens, image quality, spartan line, no frills, good battery life

Cons: slow in auto focus and recording, dominant chromatic, leakage mechanism of the lens destined to break excellent lens but maximum brightness f4 (f2.8 would have been much better)

Opinion: I've had two. the first was an unfortunate specimen. The second one was really strong!! Scream sharpness! I have come up with the sharpest and most detailed prints ever! There's a lot of work to be done on color, but once you do that's ok. If you try to uncork the shadows an unpleasant magenta disturbance comes out, but with proprietary software it is eliminated very well (from 400 iso onwards). Actually, I wouldn't buy it back, I'd rather jump on the new DP1 merrill.
