Pros: Amazing quality of the files, black in stratospheric room, price (especially of the used), construction materials, simplicity of the menu and of the controls, lightness.

Cons: Battery life, lack of viewfinder (I recommend buying the Loupe), needs good light. The Sigma Photo Pro program lacks some useful features like cutter and perspective correction.

Opinion: The Sigma Dp2 Quattro is the camera that most of all amazed me. The quality of the file leaves an open mouth, absolutely another thing compared to rooms emblazoned with Bayer sensor. The images are three-dimensional, detailed, microcontrastate, that's what I've been looking for. They have a vintage aftertaste because they resemble the best photos taken in film. The machine is located with the Loupe (the viewfinder that hooks up on the rear, useful in strong light condition) to 800 euros and is already a bargain. On the used market the average price of the room alone is approximately 500 euro. The defects are those of the Foveon sensor: operational slowness (but in the daytime you can use it very well for street), battery life (having two is the minimum), maybe ergonomics (but then you get used to). Nothing really compares to the X3F (the Sigma raw file) that it churn out. You can shoot in jpg with good results but to get the top is advisable to shoot at 100 ISO. The raw works only with the Sigma program (Sigma Photo Pro) which is slow but essential.

Pros: Unreachable file quality for any Bayer camera (APSC or FF that is), ergonomics, build quality and optics

Cons: Suitable only for certain types of photos, high ISO bad, autonomy

Opinion: I have this car for a few days and I started to test it recently. What I'm going to say is that for the kind of photos that I usually do (landscaping, flowers, some portrait set) is a kind of holy grail. I would probably get the same results with a medium format (Hasselblad or Fuji or Pentax that are) but what Costs, weights and dimensions? On the Foveon sensor have been written in the network millions of words, measurements and technical data but for me what counts is the result, and the result when used in the areas for which it is conceived is amazing in terms of definition and naturalness of colors. As they have already written is suitable for a meditated and reasoned Photograph: it takes you to regain a way of doing analogue photography, where every shot is thought and desired and I find it a good one. We live in an era where we can shoot at 30 fps to have 30 usually mediocre shots to choose from and lose hours to fix that less worse than the others. Why? If you are looking for a light machine, small with a particular ergonomics but that I find comfortable and that will make you discover or rediscover the taste of "photographing" (write with the light) This is the machine for you. I suggest you buy your Galilean ovf or the visor to be applied to the LCD (expensive and cumbersome). As a last remark I can only tell you to try it if you have occasion, maybe you hate it and will not do for you but if you like what you do will soon become a drug...... I would say that it is a machine for amateurs, I do not see it in the hands of professionals (maybe only for those who do landscaping) or buff of the forced tarocloading (pp as if there was a tomorrow). Last remark: The lens is excellent and thought to be coupled to this sensor. Quality of German tradition (Leitz and Zeiss just to say a couple) really made in Japan.

Pros: File quality unattainable, excellent materials, unconventional forms.

Cons: It depends, if you need one offering means that you will not find major flaws in this camera. Single point, perhaps, on handling: better of the previous series but not absolute, certainly migliorabile.rnOttica fixed may be a limite.rn

Opinion: It 's always difficult to review consistent and that can be useful to someone, so it's the first time I wanted to review this Sigma dedico.rnHo us because we always talk so much of DP series and sometimes unflattering tones due to some home choices Sigma.rnAppurata the absolute quality of the file that is able to generate, I think criticism of this system can be moved only by those who do not consider carefully what you take home with less than 1000 €. I think it is when the system closer to analog that a mere mortal could meet for hands, with results straordinari.rnE absolutely 'true, despite being extensively updated, it is still not lightning but a "snapshot rational" (this should be using it), this is not a limite.rnCredo that if it was as fast as a reflex of the last generation and had interchangeable lenses, everyone would possess one, with huge soddisfazione.rnL'ergonomia improved and thiorabile. I guess it really depends on the size of the hands, in Japan probably very small in view of the handle, however I do not think a great extent and shape of the camera is absolutely pleasant whole once made eye (I liked immediately even if it is the last thing to consider assuming the desire to consider it) .rnPer my part I can only advise to all, above all for those who print. The results will sorprendenti.rn

Pros: File stratospheric

Cons: general slowness

Opinion: arrived today, oddly shaped but very beautiful, autofocus enough, in low light environment with a little effort 'but if we are willing to tolerate a slightly mechanical' slow, I must say that I have never seen a file so beautiful, so defined, stratospheric I have a Fuji xt1 16-55 with 2.8 to 100 ISO but does not compare with sigma, in a word never seen a sensor so beautiful. I can just post some photos.
