Last week saw the arrival of my new Sigma DP1s. I succumbed after I saw it for less than half the original price. It is smaller and much lighter than my Canon G10, with a sensor the size of my Canon 40D. I took all three cameras to this old barge and came to the surprising conclusion that the Sigma produces the best image quality of the three. Contrary to the EPZ review I can't even detect the slightest bit of noise; possibly even less than the 40D. So, here's an example, although the compression doesn't do it justice.

I'd say you bought a winner, and found a most satisfying subject.

Marvelous detailed colour and rust. Great from a small camera, I don't really know this one, must look on the web.

There is certainly a wealth of fine detail to see, Rende. The Sigma is certainly a tempting prospect. Concerning the photograph, the perspective is amazing. And of course the rust is much appreciated Smile

Blue and rust. Strangely beautiful, as they say. And the quality is certainly impressive, you got yourself a bargain.

A superb image. I'm a bit of a rust junkie too.
I just had to go and have a look at the details of the camera. Very interesting. I must admit though that I've got a bit used to a zoom lens.

This is stunning, rich rusty hues and lovely blue water... the detail and the range of tones is certainly impressive, and I just love that perspective!!

Very fine shot Rende - like the details and that perspective. I too am looking for something light to carry with me - will be checking the reviews at dpreviewdotcom for the Sigma you have.

Wonderful detail and colours
