It is a Feveon sensor with a different technology. Sigma bought Feveon for about some years, the development costs are higher because the sensor is produced only for sigma cameras. But i think the images are absolutely awesome from this camera. And i think the sensor technology is really innovative!

Canon and Nikon couldn’t even pull that one off.

Over price point and shoots, are in that category.
As for seeing a difference, i’d have to have both cameras in hand and take pics of the exact same stuff, under the exact same conditions to be able to answer that.

And i’d rather have the nokia808, the I-phone or a canon G series, than that sigma.

Can any camera under $1000 do this? Will it fit in your (largish) pocket?

$1000.00 for that?
I’m stunned.
As i sit here making a long list of things i’d rather do than pay 1000.00 for a point and shoot sigma camera;  Slam my dick in a sliding glass door, made the list.
