Review on 📷 Sigma DP2 Merrill: Unleashing the Power of a Compact Digital Camera by Peter Alradwan

This unassuming little black box is useless in low light. After shooting, you have to wait 15 seconds before you can scold (but you can keep shooting). Therefore, you must use it the same way you would use a film camera with a Kodachrome roll. With the right mental attitude, this thing becomes real magic. Captured in good light (<ISO200), the Foveon images are simply stunning. Makes Bayer images look broken, broken. Images are crystal clear, with excellent micro-contrast, stunning edge-to-edge sharpness, and without that awful digital haze. Images have this three-dimensional effect, likely due to their ability to capture precisely graded specular reflections. You cannot stop the display at 100% pixels. And be prepared to keep picking your jaw off the ground. The most amazing digital camera I have ever used. On the whole. Google compares this small camera to full-frame cameras, even medium format cameras, that cost many times their free price.
