Sigma Show me your DP3 shots, please

I'd be interested to know if they are also being heavily discounted in the USA - maybe we are the lucky one here in the UK?

The original price was $899.... they are selling for $699 in the US (and Amazon is flooded with Japanese gray market ones for $549). I was hoping with those cheap imports it would kick down the used market to around the $450 mark for a minty used one.

Here is one of my favorite DP-3 shots, taken in my garden, it's the one that made me a believer and hope the IQ of the new product stays the same but all other things about it improve.

I too am a believer - this convinces me a religion is in the offing

Been umming and aahhhing about adding the DP1M. I am tempted to wait for the DP1Q just to add variety and see if I like the new body type.

However, the discussion over at GetDPI is that the IQ is not as good as the Merrill versions.

Have to wait and see. I still think there are probably lots of DP1Ms in the channel so I'm not in any great hurry.

I just got my camera today. I took a few shots quickly. Handheld. Cloudy day in Arizona. Look at the bidets file on Flickr and look at the birds and detail in the terrain.

Here is another one indoors at ISO 400, F/2.8, 1/40th second, and handheld. Aimed for eye to be in focus.

One of those shots that just land in your lap.

I would also be interested, especially since currently I can get one pretty darned inexpensively.

My self and a friend were shooting fall photos (linked in my first post) and as we were sizing up our next shot. This Dad and daughter came up to shoot. He took a couple then handed the camera to her, she set up and took at least 4 shots, then handed the camera back to dad. He then moved to the right leaned against the wall and started composing some shots. She sat down and leaned up against him. I almost walked off but turned around planted my tri-pod and barely got the lens opened up to F 2.8 and got one good shot off.

It was like watching this new photographer in the process of blooming..!
