Re: Are you sure it's the same lens?

Are you sure it's the same lens that's on the Merrill? I read in a couple of places, and I'm thinking one of the sources was Sigma, that it's not the same lens. Sorry that I don't remember where and can't cite any sources. Seems that the lens on the camera was better.

I was lead to believe it was - and it`d make perfect sense, it was designed for an APS-C sensor which the Merrill one is so to not to use it would be logical and costly - the 19mm on the DP1M  is soft at the edges too like the 19mm prime is on APS-C
