Since they are so late with the FFF sensor, I think that an APS-C or APS-H Foveon camera with the SD body but an L-mount and an improved AF tech could be quite the stopgap for Sigma at the moment to maintain the attention high.

If sensibly priced, I'd buy one in an iffy

Well, they probably COULD do that, and maybe they should have done that, but since they haven't done that yet, maybe now is the right time to just wait. No doubt they'd sell a camera with a smaller sensor, like an SD Quattro H in L mount (especially if it has a faster processor and an improved viewfinder, and they sell it for less than $2,000). I have no doubt the FFF camera will be well over $2,000. To me this means that Sigma will probably sell something less expensive at some point anyway. You might say the fp is that camera, I think Sigma wants thr three layer sensor to succeed, so maybe they will make a range of cameras with three layer sensors.
