Sigma DP1 review

Exceptional images. Period. There is something magical about them. Lens is sharp, sensor delivers film-like results, which is an exceptional accomplishment for a compact digital camera!
Camera takes some time to get used to. But now it has become my main choice.
Body is strong and seems durable.

Problems:

Very slow in-camera processing.
Lens is too wide. Would prefer a less wide lens, like a 45mm.
Noisy bugger.
Flash is only moderately effective.
Software is slow.
