@Burk I've wondered about those sigma cameras. Seem great for video rigs.

@Burk ah that's so nice. I've heard those camera are a bit 'marmite' for some folks - you either love or hate them but nice to see you are embracing them :) I'm firmly in the fuji camp (having whittled my camera down to an X-T5 but NGL I'd be tempted by one of those FF to have some fun with.

@alpower The fp L is the most "normal". It's a 61MP FF Back-illuminated CMOS sensor.

The sd Quattro H is a 51MP APS-H Foveon sensor.

The dp line are 30MP APS-C Foveon sensors (each of the dp have different focal length lenses.

The Foveon sensor is very interesting from a tech standpoint if that's your thing to read about. I really wonder where it would have gone if it were still in the market. Feels like a VHS vs. Beta or Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD kinda thing.

@Burk I’m a big camera nerd 🤓 and dpreview review reader so camera sensor tech is like catnip for me.
