Thank You employees of Sigma, Foveon & Mr. Kazuto Yamaki for the effort and for being truthful.

In the mountains...

Whitout your amazing work i couldn't have saved myriads of memories ... Thank you very much for the effort to all of you at Sigma, Foveon and to You Mr. Kazuto Yamaki, for the passion which many of us here share & admire.

Please, don't worry, just let your R&D team work at normal steady pace whitout any rush, they will come up in right time with new proposals.

I understand the situation, and many of the Sigma users will cope with this delay without a problem, as we also use other cams and systems.

Please, just keep us updated on any news, even small ones when you will be just testing in labs new possibilities how to overcome this problems. Just a hint in the interview or twitter post will be just great, and gives us even more confidence we already have in Sigma.

Don't worry if this efforts will not be fruitful from the begining, people understand that failures are the part of life and work. Direct truthful contact is more important, even with sad news, especially during the pandemic.

In the meantime of work for FF X3F, please consider:

1. L-mount X3F Merrill sensor camera with new imaging processors and evf in retro looking body (as inspiration: Bessa, Zeiss, Leica)

2. L-mount X3F F13 sensor camera ... the rest as above. Yes even in 2022! I Love the rendering from this sensor, just need faster working MILC camera in classic old analog looking metal package. Foveon user are not here for MP race... but for unique color rendering.

3. L-mount (27, 35, 56) F2 small retro looking manual lenses (without AF). Why - smaller & cheaper, many user are buying cheap chinese manual lenses, but they lack good quality control. I would pay more for your quality and buy those lenses from Sigma. If Voigtlander can sell them in 2021 you could also. You already have "I-Series"!

FP - L is amazing news ... Thank you very much for that also! But please for stills lovers consider the topics above.
