Good day, have already had a lot of Kompaktcams of Olympus on the Canon G series Nikon Coolpix 7000 on. The last two subjects were the Nikon 7100 and the G12, both very good all-rounder! If one only to the pure image quality, then the Sigma all other Kompaktcams is vastly superior, this applies only in alleerdings lowiso area highiso can more bad than good! videos, something we do not need to talk, that's it more as a gimmick because Handycam are better, but I have not bought such a cam. The full-color sensor has no interpolation artefacts and the sharpness is terrific, the dynamic range and color gradations outstanding, but this is photographing in Raw ahead. Who needs a quick chat with video and high ISO, which is wrong here. Who has time and high quality photos consumption and no burst mode with 10B / s, which is here operated well with. Important, please umbedingt to buy the lens hood, costs around 18, - which reduces the lensflare very good !. DPS were never really beliegt, precisely because it has to be fast today and today's clientele a cam with all the possibilities want. unfortunately at the expense of some feautures like picture quality. (We are talking here of the compact) I myself have the DP2x and DP1x, through the DSLR sensor (size), this leaves at processing of images and the image composition when shooting (bokeh) significantly more leeway
Needs improvement but the display and faster signal processing are respectively the poor high ISO performance. The New Merill comes out soon and should have eliminated precisely these drawbacks, let's wait
