Dp Quattro is a monofocal lens integrated digital camera, and three models are available for each lens focal length. This is a wide angle type "dp 1" of 19 mm (about 28 mm in terms of 35 mm).



This is a standard type d 2 of 30 mm (about 45 mm).


Besides the lens part, the casing is the same for all three models, and the brightness of the lens is F = 2.8 when both models are open.


Anyway, the biggest feature of dp Quattro is this grip part.


There is also a strap hole.


SD memory card / SDHC memory card / SDXC memory card compatible


Telephoto type d3 of 50 mm (about 75 mm). The depth of the lens is the largest, 10.2 cm.


In the SIGMA booth, the real machine of the d2 model was prepared.


Dp Quattro has a width of 16.14 centimeters in all three models, but when you look at the real thing it will be amazed by the length of its width.


Style to shoot on liquid crystal display without finder.


When I bumped up a simple question "Why in this way?", The person in charge of SIGMA said "It became this form as I push through the image quality."



"I wanted you to replace the lens if you have 3 types ... ...", "The integrated type is the most advantageous to put out the optimum setting to fit the lens, and the image quality is not achievable with the lens interchangeable type" And proud answers were obtained.


Impression that it is difficult to hold because holding one hand is too long in the side.


According to the person in charge of SIGMA I do not assume holding one hand, I want you to grip with both hands firmly.



Dp Quattro series is a successor to SIGMA's high-end compact digital camera DP series, and a new generation Foveon "Foveon X3 SENSOR Quattro" is installed in the image sensor. The new sensor adopts 3 layer structure 1: 1: 4 and pursues even higher image quality. The resolution has achieved nominal value of 39 million pixels in terms of CMOS / CCD conversion, the image processing engine has also evolved to "TRUE III", it has succeeded in high-speed processing and suppressing deterioration of image quality and extension of battery driving time It is said that there is.

In addition, the release timing and price are undecided.
