## Description

The Sigma DP1x Digital Camera is a compact digital camera with a secret weapon--a unique (among compact cameras) 14.06 megapixel Foveon X3 20.7 x 13.8mm direct image sensor that''s 8 times the size of a sensor in a typical compact digital camera. Working in tandem with Sigma''s unique True II image processing engine and a 16.6mm (28mm equivalent) f/4 lens, this super-sized sensor in a compact camera provides the same superb image quality as found in the Sigma SD14 professional SLR. With the DP1x, it is possible to record images in RAW or JPEG format in four resolution modes. Furthermore, it offers five exposure modes and three metering modes as well as being equipped with a built-in flash, hot shoe, and 2.5" TFT color LCD monitor. In addition to the included accessories listed below, the DP1x is compatible with numerous optional accessories that will improve the functionality of your camera. Optional accessories include the EF-140 External Flash, the VF-11 External Optical View Finder, the HA-11 Lens Hood Adapter, AML-1 Close-up Lens, a 46mm EX DG UV Multi-coated Filter, a 46mm EX DG Circular Polarizer Multi-coated Filter, the HC-11 Hard Case for DP1x, the SC-11 Soft Case for DP1x and the SAC-3 AC adapter.

Review: Disappointing but still good - The title may be confusing for some - let me explain. I previously owned a DP-1s. I was very happy with this little camera, both in image quality and build. I regretted getting rid of the camera as soon as it left my possession. Fast forward a year or so and I couldn't pass up a sale on the DP-1x. The DP-1x takes great pictures, but for some reason they are not as good as the DP-1s. Don't get me wrong - the image quality is still great, but the '1x pictures don't "pop" like the '1s pictures do. The build quality was also not on par with the '1s. The buttons on the back rattled around and seemed made of cheaper materials. Interface was about the same and the buttons were labeled a bit better than the '1s. Price was about $50 more, even though I got both on sale. Bottom line is that this is a good camera, just didn't meet my expectations from the DP-1s. Still 4 stars though.
Review: Groundbreaking Ability: Not for those in a hurry - Okay, kids. Here's a camera all you 'aficionados' will absolutely love if you're into composing a shot, once you know what you're looking for. While I've only had the camera for a day, it wins points on its revolutionary approach to digital-imaging, capturing the light for all the world much the way all the old 'chromes' did, back in the day when all you had were f-stops and shutter speeds. Remember back that far? This ain't no average 'Point-and-Shoot'. Matter of fact, it's pedestrian-style when you think of speed, in the digital age, that is... If you're looking for a camera to take to a sports-event, or one to capture 'on-the-fly' images, this ain't your camera. If, on the other hand, you find yourself walking about town for the simple reason that it's nice outside, you want to go for a walk and maybe catch a few shots, some REALLY GOOD shots, with accurate color-rendition and incredible detail, this might be what you're looking for. If you don't have the scratch for an 850 (about 3k, right now) or a Leica (I feel for you, I really do) and love 'sleepers' (this camera looks rather, uh, 'nondescript'...PERFECT!) then you're gonna love this little gem. While there are those that denigrated the Leica D-Lux3's 'noise' at low-light levels (man, I don't get that one, period) I thought the images it rendered were top-drawer, and being able to fit a fine camera in one's pocket it a huge plus. You don't 'get the shot' if you don't take the camera along, and this one fits nicely in my Carhartts. Okay, they're not Dockers or Van Heusens (although they have, lamentably of late, become a fashion statement of sorts) the generous space offered by the Carhartts make stuffing a truly pocketable camera an easy matter, and the plain-looking, solidly-built Sigma is perfectly suited to this application. Yeah, the red 'processing' led winks for a bit, but hey, I believe in results. All you goonies out there into a 10-frame-per-second sickness should pass this type of excellence up. That kind of camera is designed for pro-sports photographers who really NEED that sort of fire-power, not the fellow (or gal) who savors an excursion, taking it all in, in a languorous fashion, risking labeling as some sort of NUT for heaven's sake. New-agers and Zen devotees, your camera has arrived. Check it out, take the time, and your dedication will be amply rewarded. Pixel-peepers need not apply: this is the artist's camera. Like Kinkade? Buy a Nikon, and hit the street in your Polo ensemble, hey, you'll fit right in...Me, I'll take Vermeer anyday... Nuff sed...

## Features

- The DP1x has a 14-megapixel image sensor, every bit as big as the sensors in Sigma’s DSLRs. This generous swathe of photosensitive area takes image quality to a whole new level in terms of high resolution and rich tone.
- Sigma's three-layered Foveon X3 direct image sensor captures all the color, and doesn’t miss a thing, The data it produces is unbeatable in its purity, richness and exquisitely fine detail. This kind of data translates into fantastic image quality.
- Lens expert Sigma has poured its best technology into an integral wide-angle lens just for the DP1x, with a focal length equivalent to 28mm in a 35mm camera. The wide field angle brings perspective into play, offering scope for dramatic framing and dynamic expression.
- The Foveon X3 direct image sensor delivers images of startling immediacy and richness of texture. Using the X3F file format, you can experience the DP1x’s renowned emotional image quality in its full glory.
- Like the DP2, the DP1x features the special TRUE II image-processing engine. By optimizing the proprietary image-processing algorithm required by the Foveon X3 direct image sensor, we’ve managed to make the processing much speedier.

### ⭐ Can't find a use for this camera
*by G***N on November 6, 2012*

I purchased this camera at the same time I purchased a Canon EOS7D. I intended the Sigma to be my everyday carry-arround camera for vacation, street photography, etc. The camera takes beautiful photos, but it is so slow to boot up and acquire focus that whatever image you wanted to grab has usually moved on... I then tried to trade it in for another camera at a camera store "event" and was offered $10.00 for it. Mine sits in the corner of my desk gathering dust.I hate to say it but the camera is useless to me. I paid a lot more than what's being asked here, but even at $250, I'd say don't buy one of these.
