Sigma DP1, A Compact Camera With DSLR-Sized Image Sensor

DP Review is reporting that Sigma has just announced that their highly anticipated DP1, a 14 megapixel compact camera with DSLR-sized Foveon X3 direct image sensor, will finally be coming out this spring. The camera features a wide range of manual controls and can shoot in RAW, with full spec and image quality of a DSLR.

I’m really looking forward to this one. Sigma is calling it a “camera that belongs to no known category” and from the specs it looks like it’s going to be one killer compact camera.
