Lineup of later Hominids with A. Afarensis
Lineup of later Hominids with A. Afarensis

Hessisches Landesmuseum, Darmstadt, Germany

This is my first serious test of the Sigma DP2s, after having fooled around with it a bit yesterday. I'm rather amazed with the IQ. This is what a 5 MP Foveon X3 sensor can do in not really all that favourable lighting conditions.

Not bad at all, and in my opinion better than the later Merrill camera with its later version of the Foveon. So, as quite often, the "newer, later and better camera" is only later and newer, and it has a higher resolution, but that alone doesn't make it better.

Above a certain limit, the resolution is only marginally relevant to the image quality. But try telling that to the consumer.
