Sigma advantages over other camera manufacturers
I put together this collection of info for those people interested in
buying a digital SLR. These are the reasons why you shouldn't buy any other camera besides a Sigma SD10. 1) Superior build like a tank 2) Wealth of available lenses and accessories 3) Image quality is superior to all other cameras due to the highly acclaimed Foveon sensor. 4) True, realistic color images: The Sigma SD* series are the only digital cameras to record images in color instead of monochrome. 5) The best RAW conversion software available 6) Superior ergonomics 7) The most advanced features of all digital SLR cameras 8) Better effective resolution than any other digital SLR including the Canon 1Ds 9) Best dynamic range of all digital SLR cameras 10) Highly advanced autofocus system 12) Metering/exposure is always *DEAD ON BALLS* accurate. Can't say the same for Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Olympus or Kodak 13) Far less complaints of image softness than Canon and Nikon digital SLR cameras 14) Forward compatibility: The Sigma/Foveon platform is a cutting edge hot technology that will be around in 10 years. Canon and Nikon will be dinosaurs by then. 15) No need to spend a fortune on expensive lenses with image stabilization or heavy tripods. Camera shake is prevented by an elaborate in-camera algorithms.

[] 1-14 are arguable, mostly misinterpretations, misstated math or wishful thinking, but 15 is an out and out lie. If it were true, there would be no reason to buy Sigma's own 80-400 Optical Stabilization lens for $1100 from B&H. -- Skip Middleton You would be better to killfile such posters rather than waste time on them.

If we give up the field to Prediots then who is going to caution the new
readers. They need to be protected. "David J Taylor" wrote in message ... "Skip M" wrote in message news:tpBDc.652$876.22@fed1read07...

I agree. But then we get follow-ups from people that are not kill-filed. Anyone wanting the facts about the Sigma SD10 can go to http://sigmasd10.com

Yes, they do, but there are enough follow-ups to trigger the postings of such warnings. I must confess, I don't see it as giving in, though, just taking sensible precautions. Cheers, David
