Substitute "mediocre" for "old" and you get what I mean.

Also DR of D700 isnt mediocre even today. Neither is color, contrast.. or anything rly. Only department that might be short is mpix count....

IMHO, you should have get better lens. You havent reached maximum possible with D700.

Always invest in lens, body is usually secondary.. (also in fact even most expensive of camera bodies are...

Its beyond impressive..

People that can sell prints for 10.000 USD or more. Its not like they dont exist. There are ppl that sell prints for far more than that.

It will have its very small market.

Like color palette of either author or Hasselblad.

Might be cause they are still superior in some things to everything made after it..

Heh no, K1 is actually made after their behemoth of 6x7 camera. :)

One of best color accuracy/color separation CFAs in digital camera. Only comparable would be something like SLR/n or 645 back from Kodak.

Sadly they cooked a bit too much in camera. Also its...

It really depends how accurate is that AF.

Slow AF isnt problem when its spot on. You just wont use it for sports. But then, you probably not going to buy MF camera for sports, would you? :D

You dont get the essential thing.

Bayer sensors have real resolution much lower than mpix count. Foven has resolution exactly as stated. When they say something about comparable Bayer resolution,...

Not really, just Foveon sensor makes it really visible. On standard Bayer you wont notice it.

Dxomark has same lens reviewed and they are actually really good. Just Foveon is absolutely punishing...

Pretty sure there was way to convert SD to EF. At least on original Sigma cameras.

DNG has all colors already "decoded", while SPP must do that. I suspect it takes a ton of processing power.

Apart that, it might be just.. ehm.. less advanced software. :)

DNG can contain pretty much everything, including demosaicing instructions for software. So not only Bayer.

Merrills were last to have full Foveon sensors, didnt they?

Its most likely cause these have much lower color resolution.

Shot right, some SD1 images looked a LOT like film. Mostly due per-pixel...

He could also mean that camera produces a bit soulless images. But its due lens, not camera. Sigma lens are technically nice, but they dont have exactly beautiful rendering. Its not Zeiss or Leica.

Most likely possible since Sigma SA is just slightly pin flipped Canon EF. Pretty sure there will be adapters.

Just not sure you would like to live with ISO 100 camera. Not mentioning that its...

Its nice camera, one just wishes to load different than ISO 100 film in it.. :D

I still like my KM7D and S5 Pro. :) And actually use them now and then..

6MP actually isnt that bad. Its how those pixels are made and how good are they.. And in case of for example S5 Pro, they...

Its not easier or faster or cheaper.

Its just superior to everything.
