Sigma SD10/Lenses Opinions

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.dcameras,rec.photo.digital,alt.photography,rec.photo.equipment.35mm,rec.photo.misc (More info?)

Hi. I am a proud Sigma SD10 owner.

I would like to state how incredible this camera is, as are all of the
available Sigma lenses. This camera and its lenses are superior to any
other manufacturer's in all respects. This camera contains the coveted
Foveon sensor which is the only sensor that records pixels in color.
The effective resolution on this camera is better than that of any
other digital SLR in production or dvelopment today. The Sigma SD10
and Sigma lenses are AWESOME!

I would love to hear some more positive feedback from other Sigma
owners/future owners.

Thanks.

-Orville

You've obviously led a sheltered life.

Someone has to buy them in order for there to be other owners.

Um...why would you expect to be hearing feedback from someone who is a
"future" owner? They can't comment on what they don't have.

Well, contrary to contemporary newsgroup history, of course. ;-)

No, I'm not bashing Sigma.

There are several very pleased Sigma owners here, if you have more
specific experiences to share, or Qs. There are a couple of
other-brand DSLR users here too, but they are unamimously pissed off
about their digital experiences, so they've made it their mission to
regularly spam this newsgroup. I've yet to see a message of value
posted from a DSLR user that doesn't own Sigma.

No, but I do get the feeling some people here are working for Kwanon the way
they always flame anyone who is positive about anything that's not Kwanon.

Had my dealer offered me a better tradein price for my current equipment I'd
have been one.
Seeing from people using the SD9 it looks like an excellent camera.

How about creating your own newsgroup - something like
rec.photo.equipment.losers?

And although I did say I planned to sell my SD10 kit, and phoned the
shop I may sell it through promising to bring it in, problem is nothing
else does the same job. I keep KNOWING it isn't sensible to keep it but
the damn pix floor anything else for my purposes editorially (never any
bigger than its true 3.4 megapixel size) and seem to be more than
adequate for Alamy.

However if Kodak can find me a VERY cheap Pro/n I might go that way.

I am not a digital camera owner, so i'm not pissed off about my digital
experience. I did however, notice that "George" is now Georgette... i do
believe that they are one in the same... and that it is a sad thing when a
company has to post to newsgroups to get attention... hmmm says alot about
their product. If and when i do decide to make the half leap (advid film
user) to digital it will not be sigma... it would be Nikkon or Cannon.

You just caused the loss of a Nikon customer. I was going to buy 38
D70s before you posted that and made me real angry with Nikon.

If you learned how to use Photoshop to (a) crank the contrast, (b) crank the
saturation, (c) sharpen, and finally (d) downsample, and you'd be able to
create the same aliased, low dynamic range, oversaturated, oversharpened
3.4MP images from any 6MP dSLR.

I suppose that's harder than letting the Sigma software do it for you...
