You cannot compare the progress made in Bayer sensors to Foveon sensors.

That's the problem - Foveon is now up against not only bigger - cheaper and better bayer cameras - its up against much better RAW processors and artificial intelligence

its a scary situation for Sigma

It isn't

Sigma is a lens maker, cameras are just a side project from the Sigma ceo Yamaki, and he has always lost money on his camera projects, that is the way I see it.

It is much better for Sigma's financial situation if they leave the camera business for what it is, and concentrate solely on lens manufacturing. My opinion.

Jozef.

I understand that is your opinion Jozef, but I do not agree with your opinion. Obviously neither does Mr. Yamaki. I don't see why you think Sigma should give up on cameras, considering their relative success in the camera market.

I never said and I don't think that Sigma should give up as a camera maker.

I will buy the eventual Sigma FFF L-camera, if the price is reasonable ... And I think that Sigma makes a profit with their fp, but not with their Foveon cams.
