For the Scene Low Details with high sharpness in the interior of all natural lighting, I came not yet on. Either one recognizes the use of artificial light sources and lightning shadows and reflections of all kinds, or I had to live with high noise and low contrast. These in my compact camera shutter times were apparently so great that hardly any work was possible without a tripod.
The requirements were for me so pleasantly high photosensitivity and good contrast range without appreciable distortion. In principle fulfills this as well as any SLR, but the cases are just too big. I also do not need a push and no interchangeable lens. For less than 250 euros there is within this framework no alternative to Sigma. A little worry was my only prior to the allegedly high shutter lag. I could fortunately not yet understand. When you press the shutter button starts immediately, and is after the end of the exposure process to the end. Only in the case of internal processing, the Sigma begrudge a minute's silence in spite of faster card. One can, however, during which the camera again move arbitrarily, the data are in "box". Therefore full clear.
On the subject of caste the feel reminds me of the time about 10 years ago. The pleasantly heavy and square structure sprayed some industrial charm which is only supportive through the empty swept front. This corresponds exactly to my taste.
Extreme situations I (exclusively in German and very detailed) can master immediately without manual. The menu is no mystery and I was able to white balance, ISO settings and aperture priority immediately adjust. This photograph from the hand under the table the compressor located there: The sight of these recording justify every penny of the cost. Similarly critical situation in the camp: In an open closet door that hides the light from the window, photographed cabinet contents from obliquely above. Detailed reproduction of the contents of each compartment without shadow effects and with perfect depth of field. Acid test.
A huge praise at this point to the viewfinder Store. The settlement was blazing fast and both the contact by mail and by phone was extremely friendly. So macht Einkaufen fun.
