Tom,

You need to do a minimum of research. Like his cousin Ken Rockwell, he is a PROfessional photographer in California.

He actually does good work. . . . with his Nikon. But he certainly does not know about adjusting his workflow and having enough curiosity to figure out how something works.

Laurence,

You're right.  Sorry about that.

I watched the video again, and it appeared he was somewhat confused by the leaf shutter and the fact that the camera enforced some limits on maximum speed vs maximum aperture.

Nikon is excellent in many ways but far different from Sigma.  Perhaps he was not quite able to make it past the differences.

His point is well taken, that Sigma does not appeal to the mainstream.  I'm glad it doesn't, that Sigma is trying to lead the pack.  They have to have some sort of artistic goals beyond the financial and I'm glad to see that spirit of leadership and innovation continuing with the DP2Q.
