… 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.

Iain,

If "Sigma is an obscure and irrelevant camera manufacturer because they settled on flawed products" why do you bother with anything Sigma at all.?

They have made digital cameras with various Foveon sensors since 2002, you, it seems to me, being a fan of the earliest DPs, which have a certain charm are nowhere near as good as the later DP Ms and dp Qs.

I my opinion each new model up to the Quattros were an improvement on what went before and all are well capable of top class photography with some limitations.

Isn't that true of all camera types.

By the way I like the kind of images you produce. I like photographers that do their own thing.
