PAJ> Pål The bad news about this new technology sensor is that the current version is so small it has a focal length 1.7x multiplier... I am sure wildlife photographers will be jumping up and down now, though :) OTOH, I have just developed two rolls from the LX, on 100 B&W film, souped in Rodinal, shot on primes (handheld), and tried projecting them to 40x60cm onto the baseboard... all looked great... there is something to film still ;) Best regards, Frantisek Vlcek - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Things Have Changed
Ran into a friend today and told him of a client of mine who introduced me to his printer. My friend asked "What kind is it?" to which I replied "It's a person - he does B&W darkroom work." My friend also had an opportunity to use the new Sigma camera with the Foveon chip, comparing it to the Nikon D1 (Is that what it's called) and the Canon D-30. He said the results from the Sigma were superior. Didn't have a chance to talk a lot more about it, but he said the Sigma showed zero color fringing where both the Nikon and Canon did. There is a surprising development in the offing about which I can't say too much other than it might put a smile on the face of those who desire a bigger chip (sensor?) in a 35mm-sized camera.
