The DP1x has a 14-megapixel image sensor, every bit as big as the sensors in Sigma’s DSLRs. This generous swathe of photosensitive area takes image quality to a whole new level in terms of high resolution and rich tone.

Sigma's three-layered Foveon X3® direct image sensor captures all the color, and doesn’t miss a thing, The data it produces is unbeatable in its purity, richness and exquisitely fine detail. This kind of data translates into fantastic image quality.

Lens expert Sigma has poured its best technology into an integral wide-angle lens just for the DP1x, with a focal length equivalent to 28mm in a 35mm camera. The wide field angle brings perspective into play, offering scope for dramatic framing and dynamic expression.

The Foveon X3® direct image sensor delivers images of startling immediacy and richness of texture. Using the X3F file format, you can experience the DP1x’s renowned emotional image quality in its full glory.

Like the DP2, the DP1x features the special TRUE II image-processing engine. By optimizing the proprietary image-processing algorithm required by the Foveon X3® direct image sensor, we’ve managed to make the processing much speedier.

Light captured via the lens in RAW data (X3F files) form is leveraged by the easy-to-use Sigma Photo Pro application to deliver priceless images.

With enhanced portability and toughness and the intuitive user interface of the DP2, the DP1x takes the pure enjoyment of photography to a new level.
