Re: Looking for a Dp2X

Hi Rick,

You may also consider the S version.  I picked up a mint DP2S on Get DPI for $230  2 years ago, and really love it.  You may may like it better than the x model, as their's No AFE, which I find to my liking, especially highlight preservation and pp.  All controls are identical to DP1x, so zero learning curve,

I also have the DP1x, and find the DP2S very well color balanced compared to the DP1x. These 2 cameras are the best value in digital electronic photography today  IMHO.  I love the F17 imager, it's magical look and superior monochrome performance.  Add in it's LR supported workflow, and snappy pp in SPP and it make me wonder why Sigma abandoned the F17.

I carry both "digital backs" in the field, two great primes with 400 shot battery capacity, on on top on my cf tripod with quick release, while the other in a belt mounted soft lens case for quick field lens changes, one Cir Pol and you've got a great compact system!

Good Luck!
