The Sigma SD and SA camera lines generally do not require the use of a
tripod unless you are doing a long exposure over 1 second. Images are
always tack sharp. There is some mystery feature built into the Sigma
camera bodies that prevent camera shake. Of course, Sigma does not
need to brag like Canon or Minolta by throwing a "IS" or "AS" in front
of the camera.

That's all complete nonsense. No camera prevents shake; there is no
"mystery feature". IS systems mitigate shake, but nothing eliminates it -
your hand shakes, period. You do a great disservice to people on these
newsgroups who are new to the subject of photography by feeding them such
gross misinformation.

Of course he does, it's George(tte) Preddy, new name same old rubbish.

I thought it was the Foveon coven.

The camera was, of course, voted as best by Witch! magazine

It renders those cheesy witchy skin tones just perfectly.

They generally prefer OS.

So i do what i like and when someone asks for the 1000 time why are you
not
working digital, i tell them i am an artist, not a scientist.

I would have thought you were closer to science with all that chemistry
involved in film photography :-)
