Hi Gary, advantages compared to what? Raw? Lossy compression? ... ? That would help, I believe. For me one advantage is that it can be 48 bit (or 16 bit B/W). That would be compared to .BMP.

Remember that Sigma comes to Nikon Z this year (I'd say it's 80% certain), so the 35mm may come in a Nikon Z-version. Maybe worth waiting for that. I don't know about the price though. (In fact I ...

It's translated as "Sigma will probably release ..." but the original Dutch text says "likely "instead of "probably" :-). * * * DO NOT SPOIL THIS PARTY * * *

Not to be sarcastic, but maybe they got the rumor from you? That's how it sometimes goes.

Isn't it a 35mm?

I like it very much Ray, especially the woman's dress is georgously done. If I may make one remark: the sharpening is a bit too much for my taste. It's an older picture, a little bit of ...

I only set shutter speed and F-stop, keeping ISO at 100. (With really low light, I set it to 800.)

Picture Control settings also have an impact on highlight peaking -e.g. with a flat setting it's hard to see *any* peaking color in the EVF. This could be "EVF only", but in that case I wonder why ...

I would hope that Sigma makes a Z version of it. I'd buy it in a hartbeat. Maybe I buy the existing version, but adding an adaptor makes it even bigger.

Want! It may be big and heavy but optically it must be fantastic; and 40mm is my favorite focal length.

I've always been a fan of Silkypix, because of the colors. I still have version 8 here. But esp. since I use other programs, I realize it's a bit slow (esp. image refresh) and the interface is quir ...

Haha, convert to B/W and then recolorize, I'll remember that! :-)

The pupils have nothing to do with the original pupils. They come from the supermarket.

For color processing of negatives, the (almost) only step that matters IMO is: expand your R, G and B values to the max. I think that most programs have this ability. E.g. select the red channel ...

Why do you think that sound engineers have headphones on their ears, instead of just listen to the "real thing" ? If you want to do sightseeing, there's no reason to look at the landscape through a ...
