Pros: Unrivaled image quality, detail and color rendering that are incredible, all the merits of the film. With optical quality, good light and low iso produces amazing results. RNLA yield bn is the most "cinematic" and clean you could want (ISO 100 is similar to a PAN-F) and the rise of ISO noise becomes a beautiful grain dry. rnCorpo machine very sturdy, magnesium alloy and weather sealed, ergonomic handgrip and arrangement of the many buttons, access modes to the functions definitely peculiar but very well structured and very quick to use. Excellent battery grip. rnLuminosissimo pentaprism viewfinder with 98% coverage (96% indicated in the data is wrong) .rnSollevamento mirror, to reduce vibrazioni.rnBuffer very capacious 2GB.
Cons: Color noise beyond 400 ISO, usable color up to 1600 (in bn but the noise comes as a wonderful dry grain, and is usable even up to 6400). rnNecessita optics of the highest level. rnVelocità operational not excellent, slow in writing, or rather would not be slow but the raw are over 50MB and ends when the buffer (which fortunately has capacity for 20 Raw) must "sit back" and the live-view aspettare.rnMancanza . rnMolti buttons, but no configurable. rnMancanza of any feature that is not essential (when compared to any other reflex of a good standard and what you want the producer, appears almost spartan). rnDifficilmente the Foveon may be the only camera kit available.
Opinion: Sigma cameras are difficult to review, the SD1 over tutte.rnrnLasciamo for after the quality of the images produced by the Foveon sensor, and let's start from the camera body: very robust, extremely ergonomic handgrip and arrangement of the many buttons, with mode access to the features peculiar but definitely really well structured and rapid use. But for the rest, when compared to any other reflex good level and to any desired producer, is decidedly basic, almost spartana.rnrnSe and how this represents a limit, or, on the contrary, may even be considered an advantage You can not say, because it is a purely personal assessment, which depends on your needs, preferences and tastes. It is certain, however, that like all cameras Sigma SD1 has also the objective operating limits, that does not make it suitable for all usi.rnrnAndiamo now to see what's on the other side of the scale: the sensor Foveon.rnLa quality & asevere; and color rendering of the images produced by this sensor to three layers is something unique, which can not be obtained with no sensor mosaic, either full-frame. Can only sensibly be compared to a scan by a film high definition and low sensitivity. Being a three layer, the Foveon contains the color information in whole and, therefore, unlike the mosaic requires neither of the reconstruction process (demosaicing) or the anti-aliasing filter, and is therefore devoid of any kind of artifacts, or luminance or color. The big difference that this entails can not be described in words and it is also difficult to appreciate in video; but just look at the fine art prints large format because our visual memory, now accustomed to the mosaic, remains literally impressed and incredulous. When placed side by side with the same images taken with FF and printed on the same format, the comparison is definitely sconcertante.rnrnViene to dosend one: why the Sigma fits such a jewel of sensor camera bodies that are not only state of the art, but even almost Spartans? Well, of course you should ask the Sigma, but these limits are due in part to its sensor, that is, are the reverse of medaglia.rnrnLe Sigma SD1 is not for everyone. It can be appreciated only by those who know her intimately photography, from those seeking the tools according to their characteristics, choosing from time to time if and when you can use them to the fullest. In short, it's a camera for photographers, not for "photographing" still looking for the "holy grail" of the ideal camera in hand of which only becomes a source of frustration and rifiuto.rnrnIn conclusion, the SD1 is able to provide - to a photographer who is able to manage it - unique results, typical of the film and unreachable with mosaic, provided conditions permit: good light, low ISO, optical height and no haste or particular need for speed à operational. But in all other cases, you have to have other equipment they will use. |
