Sigma SD14 DSLR Announced

Recall the Sigma SD14 DSLR teaser? Well it has been announced and the SD14 website updated with all the info.

Seems most of the assumptions were right, some slightly off. It has 14mp Foveon X3 sensor with a 1.7 crop factor (as compared to Canon APS-C 1.6 and Nikon 1.5). As is the fashion it has dust
protection but apparently SD cameras always have.

Biggest news seems to be about its colour capture ability. Enough to steer folks from Canon and Nikon … you decide.

New Sigma SD14 DSLR Teaser

sigma-sd14-dslr

This is the teaser for the new Sigma SD14 DSLR. All we know is it will be announced September 26th at Photokina. From the small amount of text in the intro it seems it will be incorporating a sensor able to capture more colour data. Sensors such as the Foveon X3, used in their previous DSLR, are sensitive to all three primary colours per pixel as apposed to standard sensors that only capture one primary colour per pixel. Rumour has it the camera will have a 14mp equivalent resolution.
