With the price reductions of the new Merrill versions of the SIgma compacts, I finally upgraded from my original version of the DP1. I found that the Sigma was not only the camera I’ve been carrying with me lately, but it’s also been the instrument used to capture some of my best images over the years.
With a single day of ownership, so far I’m impressed with the improvements in the labeling and operations of the camera. It’s a bit bigger and a bit heavier, but it’s faster and more convenient to control.
At this point I have too many tool choices to have a capture workflow that lets me work without the fumbling that can ruin seeing. I’m hoping that daily capture with the Sigma will start to get me there.
