Disappointing but still good
The title may be confusing for some - let me explain. I previously owned a DP-1s. I was very happy with this little camera, both in image quality and build. I regretted getting rid of the camera as soon as it left my possession. Fast forward a year or so and I couldn't pass up a sale on the DP-1x. The DP-1x takes great pictures, but for some reason they are not as good as the DP-1s. Don't get me wrong - the image quality is still great, but the '1x pictures don't "pop" like the '1s pictures do. The build quality was also not on par with the '1s. The buttons on the back rattled around and seemed made of cheaper materials. Interface was about the same and the buttons were labeled a bit better than the '1s. Price was about $50 more, even though I got both on sale. Bottom line is that this is a good camera, just didn't meet my expectations from the DP-1s. Still 4 stars though.

Groundbreaking Ability: Not for those in a hurry
Okay, kids. Here's a camera all you 'aficionados' will absolutely love if you're into composing a shot, once you know what you're looking for. While I've only had the camera for a day, it wins points on its revolutionary approach to digital-imaging, capturing the light for all the world much the way all the old 'chromes' did, back in the day when all you had were f-stops and shutter speeds. Remember back that far? This ain't no average 'Point-and-Shoot'. Matter of fact, it's pedestrian-style when you think of speed, in the digital age, that is... If you're looking for a camera to take to a sports-event, or one to capture 'on-the-fly' images, this ain't your camera. If, on the other hand, you find yourself walking about town for the simple reason that it's nice outside, you want to go for a walk and maybe catch a few shots, some REALLY GOOD shots, with accurate color-rendition and incredible detail, this might be what you're looking for. If you don't have the scratch for an 850 (about 3k, right now) or a Leica (I feel for you, I really do) and love 'sleepers' (this camera looks rather, uh, 'nondescript'...PERFECT!) then you're gonna love this little gem. While there are those that denigrated the Leica D-Lux3's 'noise' at low-light levels (man, I don't get that one, period) I thought the images it rendered were top-drawer, and being able to fit a fine camera in one's pocket it a huge plus. You don't 'get the shot' if you don't take the camera along, and this one fits nicely in my Carhartts. Okay, they're not Dockers or Van Heusens (although they have, lamentably of late, become a fashion statement of sorts) the generous space offered by the Carhartts make stuffing a truly pocketable camera an easy matter, and the plain-looking, solidly-built Sigma is perfectly suited to this application. Yeah, the red 'processing' led winks for a bit, but hey, I believe in results. All you goonies out there into a 10-frame-per-second sickness should pass this type of excellence up. That kind of camera is designed for pro-sports photographers who really NEED that sort of fire-power, not the fellow (or gal) who savors an excursion, taking it all in, in a languorous fashion, risking labeling as some sort of NUT for heaven's sake. New-agers and Zen devotees, your camera has arrived. Check it out, take the time, and your dedication will be amply rewarded. Pixel-peepers need not apply: this is the artist's camera. Like Kinkade? Buy a Nikon, and hit the street in your Polo ensemble, hey, you'll fit right in...Me, I'll take Vermeer anyday... Nuff sed...

Can't find a use for this camera
I purchased this camera at the same time I purchased a Canon EOS7D. I intended the Sigma to be my everyday carry-arround camera for vacation, street photography, etc. The camera takes beautiful photos, but it is so slow to boot up and acquire focus that whatever image you wanted to grab has usually moved on... I then tried to trade it in for another camera at a camera store "event" and was offered $10.00 for it. Mine sits in the corner of my desk gathering dust.I hate to say it but the camera is useless to me. I paid a lot more than what's being asked here, but even at $250, I'd say don't buy one of these.

Focussing was too slow
the focussing on this camera was far too slow to take photos. the quality of the photos was good .

Good photos in good light but .....
For a start-off, the 14MP sensor is what normal people think as being a 14MP sensor and not the 4.65MP sensor it really is. This make it too small an image for publishing. This "confusion" arises from the Foveon sensor design in which each light well can record three different colours. But at the end of the day, you get a 14MB TIFF which means you have 4.65MP for each of the three primary colours. So don't buy this thinking you are getting a 14MP sensor because you are not, from a publishing point of view. In good light this camera can take outstanding photos. The lens is very sharp right out to the edges. In the corners there is only a slight degradation of image quality and about a half stop vignetting. There is no viewfinder. If you want one you have to buy a hot-shoe viewfinder and these are not cheap (~$175). The lens is sharp enough to show up camera shake and unless the light is good then there will be camera shake showing up if you try to snap shots from the screen at the back so a viewfinder is essential and something you would need to factor in to the price. The rear screen is small. If you replay your shots and magnify to 10x then your shots will look out of focus on the screen when in fact they are sharp. Colours are good except for bright coloured objects when it gets the hue wrong and I found it gave better results if I set it to florescent lighting. You can not set a colour temperature which is a big negative. Photos at ISO 400 and higher are grainy and this for me is a big negative with the camera. There are some very good cameras out there like the Fujifilm X100 that perform excellently in low light. This Sigma does not and so limits its indoors usage. When it takes shots where there is some bright light it can end up underexposing compared to what you see on the screen. I give it three stars because its annoying features and limitations balance out its strong points.

Diese Kamera ist seeehr langsam (und zwar das Starten, das Auslösen und das Speichern), sie hat nur 5 Megapixel, frisst Batterien wie ich Chips beim Fernsehen, bietet eine lausige Lowlight-Performance und die Video-Funktion ist ein Witz. Außerdem hat sie nur eine Weitwinkel-Festbrennweite, die nur f4 hat, also nicht sehr lichtstark ist und jede Idee von Tiefenunschärfe im Keim erstickt. Warum dann trotzdem 4 Sterne??? – Weil diese Kamera atemberaubend geile Bilder liefert. Sie war die erste Kompaktkamera mit einem Sensor im APS-C Format, also Spiegelflex-Niveau. Darüberhinaus ist es ein Foveon-Sensor (technische Details spare ich mir hier), aber in Sachen Schärfe und Farbtreue ist er nahezu unschlagbar. Dummerweise hat er eben auch die oben genannten Nachteile. Sie ist also vor allem eine Kamera für Landschaftsfotografen, die keine Lust haben eine große Kamera mitzuschleppen. Und da ist sie wirklich atemberaubend gut.

J'avais un dp1s depuis un peu plus de 3 ans et me le suis fait voler. Je n'ai pas résisté à racheter le dp1x, version légèrement améliorée du dp1s. Cet appareil a de nombreux défauts, mais lorsqu'on l'utilise dans ses domaines de prédilection (paysage, photos de rue, et même proxi-photo) il vous procure des résultats incomparables grâce à son capteur atypique et son objectif de course... La définition des photos peut paraître faible (2640 x 1760 pixels) mais les résultats obtenus sont comparables à ceux de mon réflex de 14 Mp au regard des possibilités d'impression (A3 possible) parce qu'il suffit d'un seul photosite du capteur pour faire un pixel avec ses 3 composantes RVB alors qu'il en faut 4 sur un autre appareil et que l'objectif a un piqué exceptionnel dès la pleine ouverture. Au chapitre des inconvénients : la lenteur de l'électronique, et l'impossibilité pratique de dépasser 400 ISO (pour les photos d'intérieur, il faut se procurer le flash externe). Il est indispensable de ne l'utiliser qu'en format raw et de développer ses clichés avec l'excellent logiciel fourni. Il permet facilement d'obtenir un résultat à son gout (oublier le jpeg direct et la vidéo qui ne sont présents que pour le décors). Pour la proxi-photo, j'obtiens d'excellents résultats avec la bonnette en option. Elle n'altère pas le piqué de l'objectif, bien au contraire. Elle nécessite le pare-soleil pour être montée, lui-même en option mais indispensable pour la protection de l'objectif mais paradoxalement pas pour le soleil.

条件がそろえば最高レベルの画像を出してくれます。特に、風景撮影に向いていると思います。キャノンやニコンのプロ用機種とは、また次元の違う描写です。ただ、扱いは少々難しくコツが必要です。露出はポジフィルム並みにシビア。アンダーに弱い(この点に関しては、昔の機種なので仕方がない面かもしれません。彩度を上げればカバーは出来ます)。操作系が他社と比べ独特。バッテリーが減りやすい(といっても、予備が一個あれば全く気にならない程度です)。連写は困難(古いフィルム一眼並みにゆっくりです。カードを変えれば多少改善はされます)専用の現像ソフトも少々使いづらい。アクセサリーが入手困難(何年も前の機種ですから)。手振れに関しては、それほど気になりませんでした。ホールド感は良いです。皆さんも一度は試してみて下さい。

当機が販売されて時間が経っており、こちらで中古のものを購入。 カメラの使い勝手などは、何でもありの快適コンデジには遥かに及びません。 起動時間、レンズキャップの開閉がいまいち、オートフォーカスの測距エリアが少ないなど、不便は不便です。 でも、先ずもってコンパクトなのが良いです。 ジャンパーのポケットにすっぴりと納まりますので、町歩きやちょっとしたお出かけにも助かります。 私のように、携帯のカメラでは物足りなく、撮った気がしない方にはこのコンパクトさはお薦めです。 画質は、フォビオン特有の質感が出ています。 メリルほどのこってり感はないので、ちょっと物足りなさを感じるのですが、それでもやっぱりフォビオン好きにはうれしい画質。 画角も口角より(35ミリ換算で28ミリ)なので、パンフォーカス的な撮り方が出来ます。 ボケはそれほどありません。 デジカメというと、新しければ新しいほど価値がある世界ではありますが、 シグマのフォビオンは、古くなっても手放せないデジカメではないでしょうか。 気軽にフォビオンの画質を気軽に楽しみたい方にはとてもお薦めです。

Guten Tag, habe schon sehr viele Kompaktcams gehabt von Olympus über die Canon g-Reihe über Nikons Coolpix 7000er. Die letzten beiden Probanden waren die Nikon 7100 und die g12, beides sehr gute Allrounder! Wenn es einem nur auf die reine Bildqualität, dann ist die Sigma allen anderen Kompaktcams haushoch überlegen, dies gilt alleerdings nur im lowiso bereich, highiso kann sie mehr schlecht als recht! videos, darüber brauchen wir nicht zu reden, das ist eher als Gimmick drauf, da sind Handycams besser, aber dafür habe ich mir solch eine Cam nicht gekauft. Der Vollfarbsensor hat keine interpolationsartefakte und die schärfe ist grandios, der Dynamikumfang und die Farbabstufungen herausragend, dies setzt aber das Fotografieren in Raw voraus. Wer eine schnelle cam mit Video und high iso braucht, der ist hier falsch. wer zeit hat und qualitativ hochwertige Fotos brauch und keinen serienbildmodus mit 10B/s, der ist hier bestens mit bedient. Wichtig, bitte umbedingt die gegenlichtblende dazukaufen, kostet so um die 18,-, die reduziert das lensflare sehr gut!. Die Dps waren nie wirklich beliegt, gerade weil es heute schnell gehen muss und die heutige Klientel eine cam mit allen Möglichkeiten möchte. leider auf Kosten einiger feautures wie Bildqualität. ( die rede ist hier von den Kompakten) ich habe selber die Dp2x und Dp1x, durch den DSLR-Sensor( größe), lässt dies bei Bearbeitung der Bilder und der Bildgestaltung beim Fotografieren (Bokeh) deutlich mehr Spielraum Verbesserungwürdig sind dennoch das Display und die schnellere Signalverarbeitung bzw die schlechte high iso Performance. Die Neue Merill kommt bald raus und soll genau diese Nachteile ausgemerzt haben, warten wir mal ab
