help Sigma dp3 Quattro FAQ

What lens does the Sigma dp3 Quattro use?

The dp3 Quattro has a fixed 50mm F2.8 lens, equivalent to roughly 75mm on a 35mm camera. That focal length suits portraits, compressed details, and close-up subjects more than wide landscapes.

Does the Sigma dp3 Quattro have a full-frame sensor?

No, it uses a 23.5 x 15.7 mm APS-C-size Foveon X3 Quattro direct image sensor. The supplied description's full-frame reference is incorrect.

How close can the Sigma dp3 Quattro focus?

Sigma lists a close-focusing distance of about 22.6 centimeters and a maximum magnification of 1:3. That makes it useful for portraits and detail work, although it is not a true 1:1 macro camera.

Is the Sigma dp3 Quattro a good choice for fast action?

It is better suited to deliberate still photography than fast action because it uses a fixed 75mm-equivalent lens and a Foveon-based workflow. The camera's strengths are detailed, color-rich images made in controlled light rather than rapid burst shooting.
