I've been testing Sigma cameras for years, and the culmination of a long list of failures has resulted in the Sigma Fp. For all of those years, I've legitimately been in love with the image quality that their Foveon sensors produced at lower ISOs and coupled with their stellar lenses.

But I never liked needing to work in their software, their deplorable battery life, the snail's pace autofocus speed, and don't forget about the lens mount that no one ever truly cared about despite its analog lineage. With the Sigma Fp, the company joins the L mount alliance and allows photographers to affix Leica and Panasonic glass to the camera in addition to some of their own. Built with weather sealing, much-improved ergonomics, a full-frame sensor, and a small body that is quite obviously aimed at the enthusiast and the cinematographer, the Sigma Fp is still intriguing. Recently, we had five minutes with the camera and found it to be really fascinating.  . thephoblographer.com
