Sigma SD9 review

When I first got the camera a month ago, I didn't quite like it. It is quite bulky and has to use two types of batteries. Photos were quite noisey if you had them underexposed. I did consider to sell it.
After maybe 100 shots I began to get better pictures. I really enjoying the SPP2 software. It almost like a digital darkroom. Now I love my SD-9 and the quality of the phots it capables to produce. I like the RAW files, it gives you lots of rooms to work with your pictures. It is a definite camera to keep.

Problems:

1) Two types of batteries.
2) Noisey when get higher than ISO 100
3) Only Sigma lenses to choose from.
