Re: One trick pony

I would have liked an upgraded dp2m but not a camera that actually has less microcontrast and resolution only so it can slightly advance in other areas where every cheap p&s has it still beaten by a mile.

The increased battery life and write speed are welcome but still utterly pathetic compared to what other cameras deliver...

More gixel would have been great and a ff version with even more pixel would have been better. I only use my dp2m at max iso 200 anyway (otherwise I use another camera), so high iso is irrelevant to me.

One thing though makes me really wonder what the guys at Sigma were thinking: wtf is up with the design? It is extremely uncomfortable to use to the point that my fingers actually hurt after a while. Not to mention that it actually does not fit in any small bag.
