We wish we could report that this Sigma DP1x camera is expensive, slow and awkward to operate; yet capable of taking stunning pictures to make it worth every penny of its £500-plus asking price. Unfortunately we only found the first part of that statement to be true. As much as we wanted to coax some of the lauded pro quality from this compact, it proved slow and inaccurate to use, with so-so images to show for it. Ultimately we found image quality inferior to what can be found on cheaper, and it must be said, far more user-friendly cameras.

Le DP1x est la tentative de Sigma pour presser le dernier bit de sortir le kilométrage d'une conception du capteur de cinq ans. Si l'on peut certainement une très bonne image dans les bonnes circonstances, il est battu solidement sur les fonctionnalités, performance, maniabilité et une qualité d'image par les caméras coûte moitié moins cher.
The DP1x is Sigma's attempt to squeeze the last bit of mileage out of a five-year-old sensor design. While it can certainly take a very good picture under the right circumstances, it is beaten soundly on features, performance, handling and image quality by cameras costing half as much.
