I seriously doubt the Quattro will offers resolution better than the comparable Merrill.Looks every bit as good as the DP2M, but with more resolution. Count me in.
I await the empirical tests.
As we all should.

It should offer a big leap in resolution. That is Sigma's claim and the full rez samples appear to support it.I seriously doubt the Quattro will offers resolution better than the comparable Merrill.

Like I said I'll wait for unbiased empirical testing.It should offer a big leap in resolution. That is Sigma's claim and the full rez samples appear to support it.
Wrong guess.Guess you haven't looked at that many DP2 Merrill files ?
I agree the Flickr images varies in quality.Different in a better way or a worse way ?
Just being different means little.
Those flicker shots were of such mundane subjects it is very hard to tell much at all.
And the real test will be when someone does a head to head test between the
comparable Merrill and the Quattro.
And also when the Quattro is compared to an A7r or D800e.
Most of the rest of it is minor improvements hardly worth double the price.
Both good, but Quattro is the clear winner on detail and colour (the green of the trees, for example). Looks more like a native resolution file, not a file that has been interpolated at all.Dp2m and dp2Q, interpolated 36Mpix.
Funny, I see the M as clear winner in detail, especially seen in the trees,...Quattro is the clear winner on detail ...
Micro contrast and detail are strong suits of the Merrill.Funny, I see the M as clear winner in detail, especially seen in the trees,
the Q image just looks sharper, maybee other focussing, maybee in-camera-jpeg-settings
I have downloaded SPP 6 and tried a couple of the Quattro raw files. The software is poor - keeps throwing errors and asking me to reboot. No change there, then...Raw and jpg download:
