If Sigma can eventually refine Foveon colour to keep its strengths and avoid the odd breakdowns, it would be a significant step forward.

… Absolutely. Sigma is an obscure and irrelevant camera manufacturer because they settled on flawed products- flaws that lost them all but the most dedicated photographic processors- as evidenced by the technical nature of the Sigma forum.

Strong language - which makes me wonder what prompted Sigma to use Foveon in the first place!

… Only hoping that Sigma will refine it’s unique gift to photographic technology.

For the life of me, I can not imagine how a future 3-layer product, done solely by Sigma, could be refined significantly enough to affect their market.

I think it quite significant that I am now top poster with currently 36, when only a few years ago the top poster often had well over a 100!
