>>4366462because if you don't autistically judge it by its spec sheet, it's a great travel and general photography camera.
For one, higher-ISO noise is significantly better than the z6/ii/iii, which is pretty important for travel as you're seldom going to have control of lighting, and a lot of good travel lenses are relatively slow.
>no evf, hot shoe, shutterEVF is a deal breaker to some, but I found when I was traveling I didn't use the EVF-11. I do use the EVF-11 for general photography, and it's nice being able to configure the camera to what I'm doing -- do I want more compact, or more full featured?
It has a hot shoe attachment, and works well enough with fell light.
E-shutter is a non-issue outside of sports and a few other niches. I have never missed a shot for it.
>fatter z6See, this is how we know you're full of shit. The fp is smaller than the z6 in every dimension.
>contrast AF without hand-holdingAgain, non-issue outside of sports and a few other niches. Boohoo, you're going to wait a half second longer to lock focus.
>they are cameras sold for people building low budget amateur cinema rigsNo, just the western camera market is more autistic than Sigma anticipated. Western reviewers got their hands on it, looked at the spec sheet and feature list, saw photos of it rigged up, and said "ah ha, with my advanced intellect I deduce that this is a cine camera!"
In Japan, which has far less autistic camera consumers on average, the fp is quite popular for street photography and general photography in general.
Sigma fully intends this to be a fully hybrid camera and feel they failed in communicating its intention with this camera to western markets.
Fuck Brandolini's law.
