What would you use or what do you use

Greetings Sigma People

Here's a simple question, if you were going to shoot a different camera brand what would you pick? Why? It has to be small, excellent IQ like the Foveon, weather sealed, fast and get repaired if need.

My Sigma's are wearing out and breaking down. There are no repairs and I don't think I'll purchase any more bodies, I still have a SD14, SD15, SD1, SDQ, SDQ-H I'm not sure what I'll do. I have an Olympus E-M1 with the 12-40 Pro but it's a dead system now as well.

My SD14 works fine, SD1 AF isn't working well, it keeps going out of micro AF adjustment, SD15 missing paint, cracked LCD, but works fine, sometimes it has an issue starting up, SDQ-H over heats, and is getting noisier. My lenses are wearing out as well.

So what do you use? High IQ, small, fast, weather sealed.

Thank you

Be safe

Roger,

If I had nothing right now I would, without any hesitation, get either the Nikon Z7 ii or the Z6 ii with whatever lenses I would choose to go with it (them) including the FTZ to allow for the use of older Nikkor lenses.

Currently I use a Sony A7 ii for people pics when a little bit more speed is required and also in low light situations. I can use all my Sigma SA lenses with the Sony and the Sigma  MC-11, the only reason I got the Sony. I used to use a Nikon D700 but swapped it for the Sony for the reasons stated.

I am not sure that the SD1M and the Quattros cannot be repaired, but they must be sent to Sigma Japan for some repairs.
