Seems like you are at a loss to explain the mega dominance of Sigma in

this market.

Steve, you are wrong, again, as usual. Sigma does not dominate this market.


Sandy, in terms of quality Sigma is dominant right now, no other pro
DSLR is even close. Certainly not the ancient 1Ds, with its barebones
electronic side, small sensor pitch, and blurry old 90's vintage 0.35
micron CMOS. Certainly not the moire-machine 14n. Not only is Sigma
dominant, there's literally no competition in the pro class.

Sigma is outclassing medium format film, no one else is halfway to
35mm in full color performance.


and canon and nikon outsell sigma to the pros by 10,000 to 0.

sigma could disappear tonight,
and none of the pros would notice.
