Sigma DP2 Merrill
Although Sigma released the DP2 Merrill in early February 2012, we weren’t offered a review unit and ended up purchasing one after reviewing its ‘sister’ model the DP3 Merrill in June 2013. We were confident enough in Sigma’s consistent product quality and the imaging performance of the Foveon sensor and image processor (which are the same in all three DPx Merrill models) to acquire the DP2 Merrill with the objective of using it for landscape photography, capturing images in RAW+JPEG format and using and editing the X3F.RAW files for printing.
Sigma DP3 Merrill
The DP3 Merrill is the latest of a trio of almost identical compact cameras released by Sigma over an 18 month period.
