More new improvements with SIGMA SD10
SD9 with revolutionary the FOVEON X3 image sensor at affordable price was quite sensational when it was launched and SD10 is more improved version.
The most attractive aspect of SIGMA SD series is its full-color capture system by FOVEON X3 image sensor. Its vivid color is quite exciting and keeps attracting me once start using and the reason why I continue using this camera is this vivid color.
More refined than previous model, SD10, has increased the sensitivity from ISO100 to 800 compared to SD9’s ISO100 to 400 although there are no changes in the size of sensor and the pixel counts, lights efficiency. Also, the resolution of SD10 is higher than other competitors at similar prices since low-pass filter causes depleted image quality is not used.
The RAW data format recording is one of the great features for SD series. The camera itself is no more than a material, and the expression is valued by consumers themselves.
I believe that this kind of product is also necessary among many digital cameras. I feel like as if enjoying a modern type of monochrome printing at home and it is a precious time to face my own works.
The intention of photographer expressed precisely by RAW image format

The essential software SIGMA Photo Pro 2.0 has been equipped with “Fill Light” function as its great feature. This function keeps brightness in highlights with increasing the contrast, and adjusts the image in shadow by operating only slider. Also, since this function is in software, SD9 users can use this software if they upgrade to SIGMA Photo Pro 2.0. In case of the RAW data format recording, there is a possibility to progress the images if the photo finishing software develops instead of completing the image data processing. In addition, the re-preserving of the RAW data format after the image adjustment is available for SD10 and SIGMA Photo Pro 2.0.

Extensive lens line-up of SIGMA

Although it is rather unique product, the possibility is unlimited if users have skills to control the images. In addition, Sigma is used to be an exclusive lens manufacturing company and their lenses are unique and suitable for high image quality. They had views of exclusive lenses for digital camera from the beginning of digital SLR camera and the image quality based on their technical know-how is also incredible. The attractive part of SD10 is that three most important things “Camera, Lens, and Software” are stable in this digital era. Furthermore, FOVEON X3 sensor with true full-color capture system and the high resolution is the most advantageous for SD10.
