Sports Illustrated uses Canon workflow exclusively due to a
sponsorship deal. SI recently said 14,999 out of 15,000 Canon DSLR
images they get are "crap." They are furious with Canon.

Sport Illustrated uses Canon workflow exclusively
Snipped bits out

The person posting under the name of George or Georgette Preddy (and
other pseudonyms) has an ungrounded but zealous faith that current
implementation of the Foveon chip is superior to all other chip
technologies. He will cite portions of reviews to ostensibly support his
claims, and will repeat, ad naseum, complete lines of out-of-context
material.

His claims may well be ignored, or at the very least verified since most
of them are extreme distortions and some are out and out fabrications."


Moreover, "Mr." "Preddy" has claimed to be a photographer (pro!), but
cannot bring himself to post a single picture with EXIF info that he
shot himself, in spite of repeated requests and challenges to do so.

Apparently he loathes anything related to Canon and loves everything
about Sigma cameras and lenses. His "claims" may be ignored, and he is
doing Sigma, and anyone related to the Foveon chip, no good at all by
arousing ire, increasing the N/S ratio, and generally spamming this
newsgroup.

I read that article, and that's not what they said.
Mabe you need to get someone else to read for you. Someone who will
take the time to explain the big (over 5 letters) words for you.

Exactly, the problem was not the quantity or quality of the results,
but that one defining shot where the subject was deemed to be just
right, and also in the original reference this was for the cover shot.
