Sigma SD9 review

After 2 months of using my SD9 I must say I am quite impressed. I think image quality is fantastic, much better than the 300d (Drebel) I have used a lot as well.

Shooting RAW only was a limitation at first, but now I found it actually changes the way is shoot digitally. I take more care now in finding the right picture to shoot, deciding what images to keep and a lot of TLC with post-processing. I find I shoot better images now with my SD9 then I did with my Drebel or G3 I owned previously.

The SD9 is in my opinion similar to my much-loved 35mm Contax G1. Both cameras with limitations but with superior end results.

Problems:

- battery life
