Hello dellaaa and the Sigma group

Reading a recent post that included a 60M pixel Bayer sensor shot, the the discussion turned into a debate as to whether the FFF would ever arrive.

Well, ya we all are.

Looking at the Bayer photo what do you believe the FFF sensor would have to do better than the current generation of Bayer sensors? What are the design criteria the FFF design team have?

Well, my SD1M and SDQ-H meet or exceed most of the Bayer IQ except for the FP. Sigma needs to step up and make a sensor that's better than a 100mp Bayer sensor.

Taking equivalent MP as the criterion for "better", according to past threads 100MP Bayer demands more than 67MP 1:1:1 Foveon.

That's a pretty low pixel pitch - even for full frame.

Good luck to Sigma if they try to get that fabricated ...

.,.. which I doubt they ever would.

A camera that has all the class and style of a Leica M, like the SDQ with an L mount, faster AF, you know the rest.
