Greetings Sigma Crew

As I thought more and more about this, for me all I need is a SDQ-H with a L mount and improved supper fast AF, I need speed. ISO, I'm good where I'm at.

OK, but definitely NOT in an fp-type body!

I think any Foveon-style sensor will need a traditional shutter, so it can't be in an fp style body.

What makes you think a Foveon sensor can't have an electronic shutter?

An sdQH with L mount instead of SA mount would be very practical. But I suppose that current fashion means it has to have a 24x36mm sensor.

Here's an idea, use what you have, I want a L mount Sigma that automatically switches between viewfinder, and LCD , a flip up LCD not swing out. I hope it's a FF Foveon or a 1.2 crop factor with a build in flash like a Leica TL or Sigma DP2x, and both mechanical and electrical shutter or a electrical shutter like the Nikon Z9. Also weather seal.

Oh ya, a price around $1000 USD

Ok, Sigma get back to the drawing board.

Have fun
