Sigma dp1 Quattro Digital
Camera:
Sigma dp1 Quattro Digital Camera combines the 29MP Foveon X3 Direct Image
Sensor with the TRUE III image processing engine to create high quality images
with an equivalent resolution of 39 megapixels due to the unique sensor design.
It is equipped with a 19mm lens that on an APS-C camera has an 35mm equivalent
focal length of 28mm. It is relatively fast with a maximum aperture of f/2.8,
making it useful in low light. For low light shooting, the camera has an ISO
sensitivity range of 100-6400 in 1/3 steps and it has P/S/A/M shooting modes for
full control over your exposure.
This camera utilizes the latest generation of this technology, named Quattro due
to the 1:1:4 ratio of the pixel layers, with 20MP on the top layer and 4.9MP on
each of the bottom two. This simultaneously reduces file size and increases
resolution, making the camera faster and lowers the power consumption. This
speed increase is also due to the third generation Three-layer Responsive
Ultimate Engine.
The processor is optimized for handling the complex image data recorded by the
sensor and produces high quality imagery. Additionally, with a 9-blade diaphragm
it will produce smooth out-of-focus areas at any aperture.
