The more u look at the specs, the more it looks the same. It uses a similar sensor (after buying out Foveon they may have appropriated some of their improved tech), a similar fixed lens (though significantly faster â f/2.8 vs. f/4), and the body looks almost completely unchanged. The button configuration has been switched around somewhat, but thatâs about it, and the LCD screen (which was reviled in reviews) doesnât seem to have changed either. You can focus a little closer (11 inches) but thatâs not saying much.
Iâm really hoping this camera turns out to be a better piece of kit than the DP1, but unless a lot of the changes are unadvertised, I donât think itâll be surpassing it by much. Still, weâll do what we can to review it and cover what the rest of the world says about this interesting camera.
