I had the original SD1. It was still warm from being welded together when I got it.

Ya I had a few of those.

Rudy G. said there was no difference between the original and the Merrill.

LOL, Ya, Rudy told me the same about a couple of cameras.

Clearly there us some differences because the firmware is different. Could they have improved the viewfinder too?

I believe there was. I think the SD1 Merrill has better AF.

By the way Rudy is living in Chicago now.

HI Roger

So from your experience was there viewfinder in the SD1M more usable than the original SD1?

To the best of my knowledge, there is no difference between the SD1 and the SD1M. Sigma themselves said that the difference is the optimized manufacturing process of the sensor. My guess at that time was that they needed an argument for the adjustment of the initial price tag of the SD1. Anyway, it was a great idea to honor Dick Merrill this way.
