All these are impressive KM141

Can these lenses be mounted on a Sigma dSLR camera too ?

Is there a special advantage in using the Sigma DP compacts ??

My Sigma cameras include SD15(moded to EF mount), SD1M(now undergoing modification to EF mount), DP2M(moded to Leica M mount), DP2X(moded to EF mount), and 2 intact DCs (DP1M & DP3M). And I am invited to test a newly moded DP3M using a Copal mechanical shutter.

As to your question, those lenses I put up in this thread can all be connected to SD1M and SD15. The results on SD1M are not so promising due to the phenominon of green corners and red centre. The results on SD15 are quite decent. I checked from the infos and found both SD15 and DP2X use the same sensor and cpu, but it is found that when using the same lens, the DP2X always does better than the SD15. I don't know why.

Probably because the IR filter is located in a better position right over sensor like it was on sd9
