You have described my objective experience with the SD1 and SDQ.

It is apparently not a "mainstream" camera.

I once described the Foveon "way" to a man who made his fortune with the IBM company. When I had finished my evangelical like presentation, he said very dryly, "That's not a consumer product".

He was and is correct. Perhaps, the fp and this new generation foveon camera will be a consumer product breakthrough. But if the past predicts the future, we'll all have to wait and see.

Besides, where's the fun in doing something without an effort?

It also strikes me that using the same equipment as everyone else in the prescribed way is likely to get the same (ahem...) results. There is no guarantee that the results will be better with the SD14, of course, but the results may be slightly different.
