Pros: Excelente calidad de imagen y colores muy reales gracias a su sensor foveon.

Cons: Las baterías no duran nada, el proceso de grabación de la imagen es muy lento y le cuesta mucho enfocar.A partir de 400 iso las imágenes tienen demasiado ruido y el balance de blancos falla habitualmente.

Opinion: Hacen falta mucha paciencia y muchas baterías para obtener buenas imágenes con esta cámara, pero la calidad de imagen que se consigue con ella compensa de sobra todos sus fallos.Recomiendo usar trípode siempre que sea posible. El editor de imágenes de Sigma es bastante lento a la hora de procesar los Raw. Por lo demás pienso que es s una lástima que no sigan fabricandola,A mi me parece maravillosa.

Pros: image quality, intuitive menu, body construction

Cons: Slow Af, slow SD storage, battery life, quality color shots with high iso

Opinion: Did I need a Sigma Dp2m? No, in this moment of scarcity of moments to take pictures I could easily suffice the Em10 mkII ... but galeotta was an outing with a friend who made me try it around the city and I re-fell when I looked at a photo taken of the statues of the cribs ... Previously I had an SD4 that shortly after I sold because as the only body it made me feel limited. Now that I have an Olympus and this Dp2 Merrill, I can choose... although then when I open the bag I take most of the time the Sigma! I immediately came to the shelters of its small imitations: handling and battery life. Yes, I took 3 batteries and an aluminum grip to have the safest grip. The monitor is not among the best and you have to trust the focus that although sloth, is precise. Few keys, PRO body construction that makes it seem indestructible... when you turn the dial or press a button you feel all the build quality. It shows its limits in conditions of strong light and against light where photos with a shade tending to green appear... but if you then set it to black and white then it changes gears. Preferably to be used at low iso, it has a good recovery of shadows... those who used the film will be pleased to know that the yield of the Dp2m is very similar. Minimum menu, few frills, basic functions, the right ones. Saving photos slow, really slow but you can continue to shoot even while saving. I often think of selling it but, its limits and its being "special" make me stop thinking not to do it; especially when I look at the photos of other users who make me remember the potential of this little one. Like the wine that over time becomes precious, even the Dp2m has seen the price of used use increase but, it is really worth it.

Pros: Files of absurd quality at 100 ISO (for the b/n you get to 1600), quite compact and anyway it is not invasive, ordered menu and commands in the right place.

Cons: Slow, battery is discharged quickly.

Opinion: Who buys her knows what she's going to meet. Once the hand is taken (i.e. after at least three months of intense use) it creates a dependence that the reflex does not procure. It has no remotely the versatility and operating speed of a media SLR, but when you manage to "center" some shots is pure satisfaction. I found very useful advice discovered on the net to get the most out of this little sigma. I often carry it with me, always with a stock drums, it's like having a compact film.. I take a picture or two and then I turn it off... then I light it if I have the inspiration and so on. The PP I use lately is to convert the file to TIFF 16bit/ch with SPP and then retouch (sometimes nothing) with LR before exporting to JPG. Fine art prints of medium to large size are the manna for this camera. I think that I will never sell it, what it offers is far better than it claims...

Pros: Beautiful files, at night is amazing, I love it literally....

Cons: There is a good list to be done, I will complete it calmly... First of all, the difficulty to handle the backlight in broad daylight, the screen does not show the immediate adjustment of what you are doing in the car, low battery life, time saving file about 10 sec is long if you want to see the result before Proceed with other shots, it makes you waste time

Opinion: I LOVE Merrill......:D Pull out some beautiful files.... JPG also manages to give so much quality in many situations but the x3f has a three-dimensionality space... It's not true that it requires a lot of light to make it to the max, the stain has a lot of strength regardless, so the results are of a high standard in every circumstance.... SPP Once you know, though slow, in the end, often, it turns out faster than Ps and if you use well you do everything there... The three-dimensionality of its files is from before the class and the quality of the detail is amazing.... In short, with Merrill you can enjoy and enjoy continuously... Point...:D-Very true that, develops a kind of addiction to its amazing image quality....

Pros: Image quality, contrast and micro-contrast, black and white amazing, excellent sharpness, strength and hard bright, current price

Cons: High ISO impossible, poor endurance, slowness in recording in RAW, AF poorly performing

Opinion: Compact, solid, discreet and, to me, precious. It requires dedication and patience, but rewards with amazing images, their best FF. Today is less than 350 € and I assure you that at that price there is camera capable of returning of image quality ... As long as you agree to take up to 400iso 1600/3200 Color and b / w be able to wait 12 seconds for writing files in RAW!
