- Enter your model number above to make sure this fits.
- Foveon X3 Merrill Sensor: The Foveon X3 direct image sensor captures all primary RGB colors at each and every pixel location with 3 layers, ensuring the capture of full and complete color. Since color moire is not generated, the use of a low-pass filter is not required, meaning light and color are captured by the sensor with a 3-Dimensional feel.
- Dual TRUE II Engine: The dual TRUE (Three-layer Responsive Ultimate Engine) II image processing engine dedicated to Foveon X3 direct image sensors improves the processing speed and overall quality of the final image.
- Exclusively Designed 19mm F2.8 lens: The high-performance 19mm F2.8 lens has the equivalent angle of view of a 28mm (35mm equivalent focal length) lens as has been designed exclusively for the SIGMA DP1 Merrill to maximizes the sensor performance.
- Advanced User Interface: The custom quick set menu and the metallic command dial are incorporated to improve usability. The diaphragm, shutter speed and menu can be changed quickly using the command dial. It allows photographers to change the menu content and the order depending on their preferences.

I bought a DP1 Merrill from Adorama during a brief sale a few weeks ago. The camera is small, though a little larger than the earlier DP1s/x Sigma fixed lens cameras. On the DP1 Merrill, the lens no longer telescopes out when the camera is turned on--so no more risk of flexing vulnerable tape-cables. The battery life is indeed short--but Sigma supplies two batteries. I've gotten 60 to 70 or more RAW images on a charge from a single battery--by keeping the screen use to a minimum. The screen can be turned off entirely or used with various duration options. The camera will simply shut down immediately after being turned on if the battery is too low.
Image quality is the reason to wade through any perceived limitations of the camera. Start up time is quick. The camera can be turned on without first remembering to remove the lens cap (as required with the DP1s/x). Processing time of files after exposures is what some folks find unsatisfactory--but this is just a few seconds, during which the buffer allows you to take some additional images. I shoot large-format cameras in the field and the set up time and the darkroom work takes a commitment of time--in comparison (image quality vs standing around), the little DP1 Merrill is a miracle.
The amount of well defined detail in enlargements from the files this camera produces is remarkable--more like medium-format film. The images show nice neutral colors and excellent detail in shade with a seeming unique light to shade relationship/quality on a monitor which is hard to define. The image files show excellent highlight value capture and recovery using Sigma's SPP software (with quite a wide exposure latitude). Excessive underexposure will reveal color noise in the shadows.Read more ›

I had a Nikon D200 camera with a lot of lenses and a Nikon Coolpix P7700. The Coolpix took better photos than the D200. In order to get a Nikon DSLR with the quality that I wanted, it would cost me thousands of dollars that I can't afford. So I came up with two plans:
* In plan A, I would sell all my DSLR gear, buy a DP-1 Merrill and pocket $1,000. In this scenario, I'd keep the Coolpix to use as a general shooter for times when I want to take family photos, and use the Sigma for landscapes and other outdoor photography.
* In plan B, I would sell all my Nikon gear, including the Coolpix, and buy a Sony DSC-RX100 II. In this scenario, I'd use the Sony for everything and wind up with maybe an additional $100 or $200 in my pocket over plan A.
I weighed the pros and cons over pretty carefully. In the end, the Sigma kept calling to me. So I went to Plan A.
Before I go any further, let me say that I am completely happy that I bought this camera. Now...
If you are looking for an all-around camera that you can use to take nice outdoor photos and also use for things like indoor family photos in low light, grandma blowing out the birthday cake, and fast-moving sports photography where you can bang off a series of shots, then DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA. You will not be happy.
If you primarily shoot in daylight, are looking for a camera that has an incredible sensor that rivals cameras that sell for more than five times the price, don't mind bringing a few extra batteries along, and aren't going to whine that you can't do RAW conversions in Lightroom or Photoshop, this is the camera for you.
Frankly, I am amazed by this camera.Read more ›
