Today, Sigma has announced the price of their new DP3 digital camera. For just under $1,000 smackaroos, you too can own a fixed lens compact camera with a 50mm f2.8 lens.

Sound a bit crazy to you? Not really when you consider how much Sigma is embracing what the Foveon sensor can do at both low ISO settings and high ISO settings (with their new Photo Pro software.) We had some play time with the camera at CES–and we actually liked it quite a bit.

Granted, there are other things that I’d personally spend $1,000 on.

    Cool, but I would put the money into a dslr or a Micro Four Thirds, I am dying to try one. = )

    Happy Weekend!
