I think they're guessing ;-) Sigma first launched the DP1 (28mm eq) followed by the DP2 (41mm eq) and they have later been replaced by DP1M (28mm eq) and DP2M (45mm eq). Judging from forums and...

Not exactly. Two lenses with the same framing at the same distance will give the same perspective (given by the distance) and therefore same "flattening". Perfectly equivalent lenses will give the...

The DP2M has a near normal field of view, so if you look at the image from the same distance as the diagonal of the image (on your screen or print), you will see the same perspective as if you were...

How about a live view only model with contrast-detect AF for all M mount lenses by moving the sensor plane?

If Contax AX could move the entire film plane quickly enough, surely it must be easy to...

A guess from someone else (but I've had a SD15 and have a DP2M) :-) The DP2M photos are labeled ISO 200 and if they also were a bit underexposed to start with, then that can explain the difference...

If it's 1 meter, why insist on archaic units on a tech site? Or if you do, go all the way, it's 3 feet 3 inches 370 thou.

AFAIK, the camera/SPP creates ISO 100 by overexposing ISO 200 with one stop and then pulling back digitally. When you do the same in reverse, it only brings you back to the same position that ISO...

Why the extra storage is expensive: Because storage *is* expensive. They don't expect the average user to get anywhere near the 1TB limit, so the first TB is cheap for Yahoo!, the next is not.

Check with your dealer, we got the cashback offer in Norway too, so it's more than a couple of countries involved :-)

I have both the original DP2 and the DP2M. The difference is that the DP2M gives you higher resolution under ideal circumstances. In other situations the resolution is limited by camera shake and...

Be aware that SPP (at least the Mac version) makes very good use of extra cores, so don't worry if that 4 core machine has slower clock speed than a 2 core, it will still be almost twice as fast....

Actually, I would say that the DP2M is significantly improved over the previous generation in handling and perceived quality. Yes, the write time is even slower than before, but the camera has a...

DP2, DP1s, DP2M previously and next vacation probably the DP3M. In fact, I just sold my SD15 because I much prefer the limitations of a fixed focal length DP over the bulk of a DSLR when...

Nah, taking only a DP3M on vacation might be crazy, but I guess that's my next challenge :-D The DP2M is a great vacation camera IMHO, wide enough for outdoors and narrow enough for people. I found...

Your math is right, but my watch is 36mm diameter, so a bit easier to photograph :-) As your math shows, the 1:3 really is the equivalent to 1:2 on a full frame, it's not so bad. If you throw in a...

$200 a pop is pretty far from the entry price, though. The full CS6 master collection is $4,693 where I live (27,162 NOK). With a subscription model, CS suddenly becomes affordable for new...

Yes, it's the quad-core *desktop* models of i7 that offer hyperthreading where the quad-core i5 don't. For laptops, a dual core i5 has the same number of threads as a dual core i7. You need a quad...

Yes, but if you had the luxury of increasing exposure proportionally with the lost signal from the red filter, all channels could have more even noise. I've been thinking along the same lines since...

Even better: The LX7 can be set to remember the zoom from last session. Why that isn't the default on every single compact camera is hard to understand, but the RX100 doesn't even have that option...

Nice! I especially like the last one with its classic Foveon look of delicate transitions and crisp detail, which sometimes takes a bit of effort with the Merrill generation. Still, the DP3M is...
