Exposures over 1/4 of a sec. too!

Outputting at "double size" looks pretty good to me although I still want to see how fast (or slowly, from what I hear) the camera focuses and records its raw files. Hope that helps...

I understand that both the SD14 and DP1 use the same sensor, but with different in-camera processing engines. From the samples posted on rytterfalk.com it looks like the new software (SPP3.1) is processing a lot better. I would suggest testing one out before purchasing if possible, shooting in RAW mode produces the best results from Sigma files.

I wish Pentax would use my k20D's 14mp sensor and system (and perhaps my pancake prime lenses) for a Sigma-sized point/shoot with optical viewfinder.

I've heard several complaints about the slow shot-to-shot speed and write time. It's not suitable for instantaneous street photography. Such a pity. Tue, 25 Mar 2008 08:05:36 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/sigma-dp1-anyone-#117190 According to rytterfalk.com the lag time in RAW is SIGNIFICANTLY reduced by using a super fast memory card and turning the onscreen review to off. I downloaded some of the RAW files from the site and the new Sigma software to process with. Why Adobe Raw is not developed for this is a good question. However, the file worked with was quite solid. I like the idea of how this camera proecess and show little noise at high ISO. Street photography? Well, think quick.
