Title: Poll: Sigma -- interchangeable lens small camera
Post by: docmaas on September 29, 2008, 06:39:30 pm
Last night some goofball inserted between 200-250 votes for the new camera using neither dpx nor micro 4/3 skewing the results. The votes don't show up on the map so they apparently used some kind of a back door.

In additional news in an interview posted here:http://dc.watch.impress.co.jp/cda/other/2008/09/30/9341.html

Mr. Yamasaki said Sigma has no plans for the 4/3ds efforts other than lenses for the SLR segment but that lenses for the micro segment have not been ruled out.  Bodies apparently have been ruled out.

From examining the map and counting balloons I came up with the following results:

Micro 4/3 version: 78 votes 47%

Dpx with interchangeable lenses: 51 votes 31%

No change to dpx models with a single lens per model: 22 votes 13%

New camera neither dpx nor micro 4/3: 14 votes 8%

I have a total of 165 votes. The poll was posted at dpreview, photo.net, fm.forums, getdpi.com, and luminous landscape.

The poll will remain open a bit longer though I doubt the percentages will change much.
I will send the poll results to Sigma for their edification.

thanks,

Mike
