Sigma DP1 review

It could be the revolution but Sigma failed. Foveon matrix
provides superb image quality (even better than most DSLRs) but it is the only
advantage of this camera. The lens is too slow. The hardware and the software are
totally disapointing. So each time I shoot with this camera I say to myself that I would
prefer to have this amazing matrix in Panasonic Lumix LX3 or Leica D-Lux 4. The
unique Foveon technology is in the wrong hands since Sigma acquired this company.
It definitely needs a smarter and richer owner.
