Sigma fp: First Impressions by Cine Pro Timur Civan

By SIGMA

Sigma Cine Pro Timur Civan recently shared his first impressions of the Sigma fp camera on our worldwide Sigma Global Vision website.

The Sigma fp camera.

He reports “It was surprising to see the abilities the fp has optically because of its full-frame sensor. I hadn’t felt background focus separation like that since I shot on much larger and far more expensive camera systems that have Vista or Large Format sensors. While there are other Full Frame camera systems in form factors similar to the fp, none of them as of this moment that I know of can shoot such high quality RAW. There was a certain feeling that you could take anything shot on fp, and with a little color correction, cut it into a professional project. Sometimes shooting with discretion or remaining inconspicuous is important. The fp draws so little attention.”
