Sigma has released another tiny and minimal FF camera:


It has a USB-C port... they make mics / headphones for that port.Shoots 6k video but no mic jack!
I'm not in any way in the market for a digital camera, but this would have my attention if I were. EXCEPT for the lack of an EVF. I have the same vision problem, and find it really hard to work from a screen. They will lose a significant number of customers if they don't at least provide for an accessory EVF.Beautiful Foolishness - I love it!!!
Being long sighted, I need a viewfinder. Otherwise, I would have been interested. Good for Sigma for going outside the box.
It is Sigma, they do whatever they want and if it sells, that's only a bonus!I'm not in any way in the market for a digital camera, but this would have my attention if I were.

Yes.It's a far cry from all the little knobs and levers of, say, a Barnack Leica, and that aesthetic always makes my heart beat faster. But the Sigma is equally beautiful in an utterly different way. The world needs more beauty and less junk.
I doubt it...unless it is going to attach to usb-c.I hope for an attachable evf in the future. One more fitting and streamlined that suits the bf aesthetic. In that way I'll won't needing to be eyeing out for the EVF - M at 5x the price 😆
They can still do that with their phones. If they want to be more serious with their photography, they will have to compromise. I mean, let's be honest. They use film, instax, etc. You cannot paint all young people with the same brush.My iPhone backs up photos immediately to my iCloud. Young people expect to be able to do this with their digital devices.
Their market will be people who want a pretty camera that is small. People can figure out how to hook up the camera to their device.Sigma makes no mention of wireless/cloud connectivity - only USB-C. Seems like they haven’t read their market.
It is intended for anyone who wants a small FF camera system. It'll be a social media darling no doubt.Who is this camera intended for, if not young people? It looks cool but lack of connectivity is inexplicable.
