It's just because of the default rendering of DxO, its contrast curve just happens to pull most of the image down. Here is what the default rendering from Capture One looks like : It's still a bit dark but it was definitely the intent. I took this shot with a Sigma fp, and most experienced owners o

I think this is because nobody really knows how to use the RAW workflow. Some do, many don't. Many don't spend enough time to understand the way a camera's dynamic range is even used. The Sigma fp when processed well seems to have more than enough dynamic range. Again, if you know how to expose the

The bigger sensor means lower readout speed so - a bunch of the video features perhaps not being there? What would make sense is the s9r. There's already the sigma fp-l as a proof of concept. And with ibis would be my perfect camera.

How is this e-model worse than the S1R II proper? Man I hope it's more a sigma fp-l vs Leica SL3 interpretation :)

I loved my fp-l in every way except AF. Switched to a S9 which has great AF. I miss the absolute minimalism of the sigma. If I had unlimited funds I’d keep one for landscape work but if I added a second camera it’s probably be the s1rii for its middle resolution but also a shutter and EVF.

The Sigma FP and FP L are both smaller than the S9, but they have some quirks. No IBIS is a big one. Bad autofocus is another. I love my FP L, but it’s a very “special” little camera. Everyone saying there are no other options, need to google.

The Sigma FP has internal RAW recording since many updates ago, you just need high-speed SD cards (I'm actually shooting 12-bit internal RAW with some v60 cards and it works fine). Coming from a Magic Lantern 5D MKII, it feels like a nice upgrade to me. No more fighting with Magic Lantern randomly r

ah yest the truly unique sensor that is the same sony sensor that multiple sonny cameras and the sigma fpl use and the colors which doesnt matter compared to any other modern cmos sensor if you shoot raw. with leica I get the point of m and q series because they are atleast different in terms of sho

Not a lumix body but the Sigma FP and Sigma FPL are l-mount and smaller. They have a lot of drawbacks but yeah just putting it on your radar if you didn’t already know about them!

Something else that's anomalous about the FP sensor is it's extremely low read noise at high gain settings. Better than the S1ii etc, so technically it's still the best low light camera for stills, unless the testing methodology was incorrect somehow. This might have something to do with that PDAF a
