Beautiful set of images Sandro: Thanks for sharing.

I shoot the SD1 Merrill and the 18-35 mm Art lens at 19 mm and get similar results to the DP1 Merrill. A few years ago I shot comparison images with both cameras and found very little difference, if anything the 18-35 mm Art lens was a tad sharper in the corners; but that required some serious pixel peeping!

Surely your SD1 Merrill is a great choice.  I'm very interested in this camera (with modern Sigma lenses as you tell and not with my old glasses, without live view for me is difficult....).  But here in Europe now is difficult to find this camera, and I'm waiting for the next (I hope with the same kind of sensor, and good if larger) 1-1-1 Foveon full frame in 2020..... I think this one will be a joy for many of us.....old lenses via adapter+new excellent Sigma lenses+wonderful sensor.....

All the best,

Sandro
