The 14-megapixel camera is a cross between regular compacts and digital SLRs and continues to hinge on its FOVEON sensor, which is significantly larger than in point-and-shoots and helps produce more professional images, particularly in RAW mode. It also gets full manual controls and, since it was first shown last ... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/14/sigma.dp2.in.uk/ Thu, 14 May 2009 18:45:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/11/11/sigma.buys.foveon/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0801/sigmadp1-2.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Kawasaki, Japan-based digital camera maker Sigma Corporation has purchased all stock of Foveon Inc., a company that developed the original three-layer image sensor for digital cameras.
