There's a certain balance to my collection of Sigma cameras, my old lenses, my oldish computer, my 1280x1024 pixel monitor, my slow satellite connection, my shaky photographic ability and my viewing only on-screen.
Twice now, Merrills have upset this balance. Sold a DP2M some time back and now the SD1M is sold.
The high resolution shows up my shaky hand and my somewhat fuzzy lenses. SPP 5.5.3 does it's job well but I am way to old to wait patiently for X3Fs to load and for that incredibly long wait between adjustments. Please do not advise me to get SPP 6.x which is said to slightly faster.
I ended up shooting in LO res to bring some sanity to my snapshot processing but, frankly, the images were only slightly "better" than those from my SD14. So goodbye, SD1M, it was fun while it lasted.
