![]() They consist of features that were always intended but unavailable when the camera was launched, performance improvements (notably to the AF) and bug fixes. We've not yet been able to test an updated camera yet, but we have noted these changes in the review below. Sigma has also released firmware Ver2.0 for the Sigma fp which addresses a number of issues and comments about the camera in its original form. We've updated our review to include a section on video, as the Sigma fp is designed as a crossover camera that captures both still and moving images. In video, where the Sigma fp is at the centre of a much larger shooting rig, this is not an issue, of course. You can also use compact classic lenses from Voigtländer for example, via adaptors, and use the Sigma fp as a kind of low-cost Leica, but for mainstream autofocus photography, the majority of the full frame L-mount lenses you can get right now are designed on a much larger scale than this camera body. Despite the limitations, however, these compact and very fast crop-mode lenses do offer an interesting alternative. We wait to see what effect this will have on video capture. ![]() ![]() We have seen these lenses before in other APS-C mounts, and it's true that mounting an APS-C lens on a full frame camera is not ideal because of the crop factor and drop in resolution. However, Sigma has launched three new APS-C L-mount prime lenses, the Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN, Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN and Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN – all of which will be available in July.
