Outside the SD10 does a nice job pixel by pixel. Fewer pixels is a big processing speed advantage.

Yeah, I'm kind of a curious type, so I took my 3 SD cameras to the local dealer for a 'swap' adventure. We agreed to trade even: 3 of mine for his Canon 5D, used of course by a photographer who traded it in for a D200.
. - Canon 5D - don't say that word near me or I'll grab for my umbrella and stab at your lenses!Yeah, I'm kind of a curious type, so I took my 3 SD cameras to the
local dealer for a 'swap' adventure. We agreed to trade even: 3 of
mine for his Canon 5D, used of course by a photographer who traded
it in for a D200.
But part of the deal was that I could reswap within a month if I
wasn't satisfied. ... Turned out I hated working with this camera.
I just couldn't get used to it. No sex appeal in that camera, and
that overly technical sound of the shutter made me shake every time
like when you drag a nail over a chalkboard, uhhh! The camera
seemed made for technogadgetpeople, you know the ones with big
4-wheelers and computeraided homes - and not for real photographers
of flesh and blood with real emotions and a passionate feel for the
world!
And the image quality I could get out of it was just bad. Really
bad. Worse than any I've seen presented on pbase. I talked to the
dealer about it and he found out I was referring to fullsize
images. 'Nobody displays full size, he said, and you have to use a
lot of sharpening too, how come you don't? Everybody knows that, he
said, looking over his glasses'. ...
It now turned out he had sold my SD9 and one SD10 to some eager
customers, - because there's a growing awareness of the Sigma
superiority over Canon among photographers, he added - but he was
willing to take back the 5D and give me my last SD10 back and the
SD14, when it arrives here. Yes, I said, deal done, and I handed
over the crappy thing. So now I'm looking forward to receiving the
SD14 as much as everybody else here, probably at Christmas and at
least at my birthday which is late Marc
say that word near me or I'll grab for my umbrella and stab at your
lenses!

It wasn´t nessescary to got o such extremes ... to get me out of the bush...Hi Frits, I had to do something to get you out of the bush or
whereever you were. Did you see my golden eagle shot. It was a pair
of eagles circling over Roskilde yesterday.... And about the 5D:
it's an expensive camera, so it's got to be good, right

Is this thread as many others threads by Sharpvision silly and probably a troll-thread? Are some of us tired of this long line of stupid comparisons, comparisons, comparisons? Does it bring anything interesting: NO!--Frits, come on now ... would I ever tell white lies? would I everIt wasn´t nessescary to got o such extremes ... to get me out ofHi Frits, I had to do something to get you out of the bush or

I actually thought you were overworking to save for the SD14 + DP!;
would be sensible. Is that Canonprinter expensive in inks, by the
way?

IQ was better than it was given credit. All 10MP dSLRs look like slides at 3MP. SD10 ISO 100 IQ was first for the price.
Did you keep your Sigma lenses? Would you buy the whole system again? More people would try Sigma if the system wasn't so expensive after recapture. A 10MP C or N is cheaper to buy and own. Sigma could fix most of that with a better mount.
