Sigma SD10 Review
The good: Sharp, artifact-free photos in good light; somewhat improved high-ISO capability; excellent raw-processing software included; more than 40 available lenses; built-in dust shield.
The bad: Still largely limited to ISO 400 or lower; sluggish overall performance; subpar autofocus; inelegant design and ergonomics.
The bottom line: Landscape, architectural, and other photographers who crave detail and sharpness should consider this digital SLR, but action and low-light shooters might want to pass.
