Interesting and thoughtful post but are you ready to finish what you started?

As a Sigma shooter, obviously

Watch out for people throwing "sand".

I have the perfect antidote for sand.....Cabbage in Beetroot Jus

I watched the sensor wars from the sidelines. Never could see the sand until one day...

I never suffered the sand, I joined the Quattro Party late on, I almost feel like I missed out.

As a Merrill owner however, I am used to strange alien chromatic invasions creeping out of tarmac, trousers etc etc. Don't push the shadows - leave the shadows alone!

No good ever comes from the shadows...

What you didn't mention because all fixed lens Sigmas have it are a stunning lens with essentially a free weird camera stuck on the back of it.

I must like that kind of thing, I'm now the proud owner of a Fuji GW690II, if you've never had the pleasure think "Honey I blew up the camera!". My wife lovingly christened it the "Delboy" Camera. You can normally tell when people have spotted it (which isn't exactly difficult) as their jaws are usually dragging on the floor, I'm thinking of getting a Stetson....

You also didn't mention a battery life measurement that lets a Merrill die while writing the file.

Why spoil the surprise?
