So are DP2M files.The files are incredible clean at basic ISO.
Stunning resolution.
Which maybe could explain DPQ in camera NR as many believe cause the soft look.So are DP2M files.
Thanks Jim.I'm interested, Ute, in what part of the camera ergonomics do you think the Q has moved backwards? There are two command wheels (instead of the one on the Merrill), the camera design is 'better' to hold, the menus are improved, battery life is double, and the file saving time has been cut in half. Sigma seems to have addressed the majority of issues that folks were complaining about. The only issue that I could see is that it is a larger camera---it's probably not something that you'll throw in a jacket pocket.
SPP ergonomics---that's another issue...
The Quattro is also exactly the same price as a Merrill when they were first released.
Now---if I was buying one or the other, the Merrills are a screaming good deal now. I think I'd pick up a DP2M or DP3M over the Q version, in all likelihood. I'd probably pick up a DP1Q instead of the DP1M, assuming that there are some substantial improvements in the lenses. But if the Q's dropped to $800-850?
I'll be interested to see your head-to-head, although I'm always very skeptical of these (done by anyone) where they compare a camera they've been using for a year or two with one they've just received. It takes some time (typically) to learn to get the best out of your camera. In a week you'll be able to figure out what you love and what drives you nuts...
Have fun!
Jim
You will see soon, if you are an "etepetete" kind of photographer you will run crazy with camera and software, if you have some balcanic coolness- like me -you will love the pics and dont care about the weakness of the "system"....I am happy to learn I made the right choice...
I am from Balkan Northwest..Living on the Balkans as I do..
Not that much cameras, 6x7 and 6x8 is both Mamiya RB67, with standard or motorback..Wouu, you have quite some formats at hand there...!!!

Had Mamiya 7II and 2 x 645 Pentax NII and Contax. But those nice cameras are long gone. I have however still my Kaiser Multigrade enlarger w. Rodenstock 80mm APO laying around.Not that much cameras, 6x7 and 6x8 is both Mamiya RB67, with standard or motorback
I cannot agree, my location is about 10km from SLO and 80 from Varazdin, and here clearly is Balkan...HR and SLO do not see themselves as part of the Balkans .....
