In addition to various lenses, Sigma has also presented a full-frame hybrid camera. It is as small as a compact camera.

Sigma has announced that it has developed the smallest and lightest full-frame hybrid camera currently available. It measures 113×70×45 mm and weighs 422 grams with battery and memory card. This puts it in the compact camera sector, without the lens of course. For comparison, the Sony RX100 VI measures 102×58×43×43 mm.

Key features:

• full-frame sensor with 24.6 megapixels
• dustproof and splashproof housing (die-cast aluminium alloy)
• LCD with 2.1 megapixels
• auto contrast tuning with 49 metering points
• 18 burst images per second, but only for 12 shots
• 4K video, CinemaDNG with up to 12-bit, H.264
• ISO automatic up to 25600 manual up to ISO 102400
• external flash connection possible
• USB 3.1 type C, HDMI, microphone input

What the device doesn't have:

• a viewfinder. However, it is possible to connect an external viewfinder.
• a mechanical shutter.
• mechanical image stabilisation in the camera, only electronic.

The Sigma fp should be available in the autumn, the price is still unknown.

Objectives

At the same time, Sigma presented three lenses for Sony's full-frame and L-Mount. This is the connection used by Leica and Panasonic S (full format) as well as Sigma for fp. They should be available from summer 2019.

The 14-24 is already available for Canon and Nikon SLR cameras.
