Sigma DP1 review

(Had the camera for two weeks for testing-compared it with a Nikon D-200)
pros: solid housing, fast when using manual focus, low noise in the
dark areas, lens sharpness ok, skin tones perfect!
cons:
autofocus slow, flash too small for filling-in with back-light, pictures too little, yes you can c a l c u l a t e them bigger when using raws but who wants to do that all the time, clipping in bright areas, lens opening 4.0 too low, Raws cannot be developed with Photomatix, jpgs are very small, battery capacity small, too pricey for all the above

Problems:

No.
