As we all can see, since some times now, the whole Foveon universe became invisible on internet. The DP website is down, the links to the brochures of old SD/DP is down (I still host some on my server for historical purpose), the marvelous mini musical sites are impossible to find or summonable anymore. links are dead or rerouted to GLOBAL... Bear in mind that all of this cleaning is done by SIgma and Sigma only and I find it kind of sad/alarming.

Well, websites come and go, it's normal. The old Fuji websites (e.g. for X100) also don't exist any more.

However, they are still there on the Internet archive:

Here are the old sites for the DP Merrills:

And here is the old site for the DP2:

Sigma list all the discontinued cameras on their modern website, too:

Ho yes I understand but the invisible part is the commercial brochures. Manual and tech specs are ok but the brochures where very beautiful and inspiring.

The brochures are here

The Sigma DP2 website is amputated of the most beautiful material : the flash intro ...

yes, I remember.. If you are looking for the music from the intro, it is by Erik Satie, a French composer (1866-1925):
