The Sigma DP1, the world's first digital compact camera feature an APS-C sized imaging sensor, was first accessible as a concept prototype at Photo kina 2006. Since then potential users have uncertainly been waiting for its let loose to market - in vain. Sigma has today published an announcement in which the company explains the delay by unforeseen image quality evils which resulted in a obligation to change the specification of the camera's imaging pipeline. Luckily things seem to be back on track now with alpha testing of the final design having started in November.
