The Sigma DP2 is a compact camera with a difference - at its heart is a large DSLR sensor that delivers better image quality than virtually all other compacts. The successor to the DP1 model has a new 41mm lens, faster operation and a more intuitive user interface, whilst retaining the same 14 megapixel sensor, 2.5 inch LCD screen and RAW file support. We find out if the Sigma DP2 is the right compact camera for you in our latest in-depth review...

The DP2s is a compact camera with a big sensor, a minimum of controls and a distinct lack of bells and whistles. If you're an experienced photographer who wants a camera that does what you tell it to and takes great pictures, you should check it out
While the Field Review is over, Features Editor Vincent Pastore will be taking over my time with the camera and trying it out for street photography and testing it out against his entry-level Olympus DSLR. Here's the rundown for you though.
The Sigma DP2s follows hot on the heels of the DP2, and promises a fantastic image quality and improvements on its predecessor. Does it succeed?
A compact, advanced digital camera with a large Foveon X3 Direct Image Sensor and few automated functions.There's very little difference between the Sigma DP2, which was released in April 2009 and the DP2s, which was announced in February 2010. The sensor and lens in the new camera are the same as the earlier model and the rather quirky user interface is unchanged. According to a company press release, there's a new AF algorithm for faster autofocusing and a Power Save mode to enable more shots per charge. The rear panel buttons are more clearly labelled, and the camera ships with the latest raw file processing software.
