Pros
"Excellent optics, though maximum aperture is a bit slow at f/4; Very low barrel distortion; Very little chromatic aberration; Foveon sensor captures smooth, well-defined detail; Small camera design is easy to bring along; Good button placement; Good feel to all buttons and controls; Hot shoe for accessory flash or viewfinder; 3.77 fps continuous mode (but only 3 frames); RAW software is included, and allows for better quality images with just a few adjustments; Unique design, great for the contemplative photographer; RAW images taken at ISO 800 look good at 11x14 inches

Cons
"JPEG images are of poor quality, with little consistency from shot to shot; Sensitivity tops out at ISO 800; Lens cap is a pain to put on, doesn't work with lens hood; Difficult to manual focus without close measurements; Not good for Macro photography; Changing AF points is too difficult; Autofocus is slow; Poor low light AF performance; Lacks built-in optical viewfinder; Images are undersaturated by default; increasing saturation does very little; Saturation decreases further as ISO increases; Incandescent white balance is poor at best, regardless of setting; Slow startup and cycle times; Camera functions lock while images are saved to card; Animated menus slow you down; Single focal length limits photographic possibilities; Digital zoom blurs due to upsampling; Lacks histogram while shooting; Pop-up flash is weak; No RAW+JPEG option; RAW processing software is slow; Mediocre battery life; Maximum shutter speed varies with aperture; No Bulb mode
|
Cons
the controls is bad
|
Cons
1. Slower auto focus when compared to the Canon and Nikon systems. 2. Metering less accurate when compared to the Canon and Nikon systems. 3. Battery life relatively short (150/250/400 photos for SD14/Rebel XT/D40). 4. Some Sigma lenses haves quality control issues. I had to return the 30mm f1.4 lens because of back-focus problem. It has worked fine after the exchange. Sigma USA customer support is friendly. 5. Camera system crashes a bit too often. Need to restart and waste 2 seconds every time. 6. Slower burst rate. Not suitable for shooting birds or race cars unless you are really good.
