Sigma's marketing of its cameras has been a mystery. They insist on trying to compete with mainstream products. Which doesn't work because neither the camera bodies nor the sensors can compete feature for feature.

They would be better off marketing their wares as special purpose that stand aside from the mainstream, emphasising uniqueness. They could start by making their gear fixed ISO rather than pretending they have any hope of making useful ISO 3200.

Got my my vote on that!

One would then perforce respect the sensor's native capabilities - instead of believing that it can see in the dark by "increasing the sensitivity" ...
