Probably the best camera in the world for some scenarios

Re: Probably the best camera in the world for some scenarios

Well said.  I pretty much agree with all your findings.

I bought a dp0q brand new a few months go and was shocked rigid at how good the output was, and almost immediately thereafter I picked up an almost new dp2q.  I love them both to bits and still can't believe the quality of the photographs it produces.  I'm primarily landscape and general scenery.

The downside of these, and all Foveon cameras, is file format.  Do I go DNG and Capture One / LightRoom? Or do I go X3F and struggle with SPP and take TIFFs across?  I've played extensively with both routes, and still don't know if I'm getting the best the cameras can offer. Something deep inside me niggles away saying that DNG isn't as 'good' as X3F, but at the same time I wonder if I'm making the right adjustments (or no adjustments?) with SPP.  It's fun experimenting though.

1: I don't listen
2: Something else
