Sigma Love-Apalooza on Planet Earth.

Favourite, Inspiration, Q&A, Sigma DP1, Teaching point

This is an example of the image output from the original Sigma DP series camera, the DP1:

(28mm equiv, F4 lens)

Love-Apalooza

The DP1 was an excruciatingly slow compact camera, but it helped me capture one of my favourite images, Planet Earth:

planet-earth

The camera and software from Sigma were both challenged (and continue to be), so much so that I never purchased any of the subsequent DP offerings.  Still, the image quality from the Fovean sensor has always called out to me, like a Sirens’ song

The Siren that’s been singing the sweetest song over the past 18 months: the DP3.
